The spot sets up perfectly for Winnipeg to get a semblance of revenge against Toronto. This is the first meeting between the two teams after the Blue Bombers lost by one point to Toronto in last year's Grey Cup. Winnipeg was a five-point favorite in that game.

Now the Blue Bombers, off a bye, get the Argonauts at home when Toronto will be resting key players after wrapping up first place in the East Division.

Among those Toronto players sitting out is QB Chad Kelly and linebacker Wynton McManis, a key defensive cog.
