<p>The oddsmaker opened this game at a “pick” on the point spread line with a total line of 54 points. Ottawa successfully avenged last season’s loss to Edmonton in the Grey Cup with a thrilling 45-37 overtime victory last Saturday as a six-point road underdog, but the big question mark heading into this contest is the health of quarterback Henry Burris. He remains questionable with a hand injury so look for Trevor Harris to get the call if Burris cannot go. Harris went 17-for-19 for 292 yards against the Eskimos so the downside may not be that steep.</p>
<p>The Alouettes got past Winnipeg in their season opener with a 22-14 win as slight two-point road underdogs, but they come in this game mired in a three-game losing streak to Ottawa both straight-up and against the spread.</p>
