This is a 10* on UNDER

This East Division matchup pits 0-2 Hamilton, the only winless team left in the CFL, against Montreal who is 1-1. The Ti-Cats are off a bye. Two weeks ago they got smashed 30-8 by Saskatchewan in a game where the line was pick ‘em. They week before they didn’t fare much better in a 19-6 loss at Winnipeg. There they were two-point favorites. This is the third week in a row playing on the road. It comes vs. an Als squad that had Week 1 off and has since split a pair of contests on the road. They won the first game 30-13 as five point underdogs over Edmonton. But then they fell 28-22 at Calgary as a five point favorite. This is the first time playing at home and they are 5-0 the last five games they’ve been off a loss. That goes back two years though, so you might as well throw it out. Hamilton trying to avoid its first 0-3 start in four years seems more significant as does their 7-4 overall win streak over the Als. They are 5-1 in their last six trips to Molson Stadium. However, the Ti-Cats have only scored 14 points in their two games this season. Dane Evans will start at quarterback Thursday behind an offensive line that has struggled. Starter Masoli got hurt against Saskatchewan. Montreal’s defense, flagged for 16 penalties a week ago, should play a “cleaner” game this week. Under is 8-2 in Hamilton’s previous 10 road games. It’s 35-17-1 in Montreal’s last 53 East Division games. Play on UNDER
