It has finally started to happen. The CFL’s offences are catching up to the defences. In week 10 the games averaged 60 points/game (second highest average total of the season). Passing led to 17 TDs with only 7 INTs. Both of these teams have new OCs with lots of experience sorting out CFL offensive opportunities and limitations. The Elks and their new starting QB Ford threw a real scare into the Bombers last week, jumping out to a 22-0 lead early. And this week WR Lewis, last year’s outstanding player in the East, will return to add another threat to the Elks’ passing game.

The Ti-Cats hired Grey Cup winning coach Milanovich as their OC and he has had two weeks (coming off a bye) to prepare his new team. He was a QB coach for the NFL Colts so he should help QB Powell improve his production.

Between two rejuvenated offences and two low rated defences this should be a high scoring affair. Take the over and enjoy the fireworks.
