Point Spread: Calgary -5.5
Total: 54

<p>
The Stampeders will look to extend their unbeaten streak to six games when they travel to Saskatchewan to take on the Roughriders at Mosaic Stadium. The betting line of this Week 8 match has the Stamps as a -5.5 point favorite with an O/U line of 55.

Calgary could be the best all-around team in the CFL given its ability to put some serious points on the board while doing a fairly good job at keeping opposing offenses in check. The Stampeders upended Saskatchewan 35-15 as 9.5-point home favorites in the front-end of this home-and-home series last week. The total stayed UNDER the closing 55-point line. Bo Levi Mitchell had another strong outing as quarterback with 312 passing yards while completing 25-of-37 attempts. Calgary has now outscored its last two opponents a combined 38-7 in the fourth quarter.
</p>
<p>
It will be a tall task to even things up on Saturday night in this West Division rivalry given Saskatchewan’s current five-game SU losing streak to the Stampeders while going 1-4 ATS. After missing most of the regular season so far, Darian Durant returned as the team’s starting quarterback last week against Calgary and he went 17-for-28 for 247 yards.

I am not quite sure this will be enough to avoid another loss this Saturday night while also failing to cover as a 5.5-point home underdog this time around.
