10* CFL TOTAL OF THE WEEK: MUST PLAY ALERT!
(CFL) Roughriders (SSK) vs. Argonauts (TOR),
Total: 50.50 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
10* Riders/Argos UNDER (TOW)

These teams have been involved in several higher-scoring games of late, but we're expecting a much tighter battle here on Thursday night. The Argos play with revenge after falling 30-23 at Saskatchewan back in Week 5, and note that Toronto has seen the total go "under" the number in eight of its last 12 in trying to avenge a SU/ATS road loss vs. an opponent. The Riders can't be happy after squandering the lead three different times last week in their eventual 27-24 loss to Montreal. Toronto is off two high-scoring games vs. Calgary, losing 27-23 on the road, and then bouncing back to win 39-25 in Week 10. Now the Argos welcome back QB Chad Kelly, making his first start of the year. Kelly's been out since May after getting sidelined due to violation of league policy. He'll have his hands full with this now desperate Riders side looking to stop a four-game slide. Saskatchewn is averaging 20.3 PPG over its last six games and the last thing it'll want to do here is turn this into a shootout on the road. We say the conditions are right for more of a defensive battle than what the oddsmakes are leading us to believe; the play is the "under!"
