What’s on the table today?: CFL Kickoff Weekend: Betting Preview
Thursday night as the NFL kicked off their pre-season with the Hall of Fame Game (Pittsburgh beat Dallas 16-3), while the CFL kicked off it’s REAL season after a year hiatus in Winnipeg with the Blue Bombers unveiling their 2019 Grey Cup banner and beating the Hamilton Tigers 19-6.
Starting tonight with the BC Lions and Saskatchewan Rough Riders the rest of the CFL gets going and below you will find a Betting Preview with point spreads and totals for all the weekend’s games. As of now, I don’t have a great handle on how to advise a bet on CFL football, but that’ll be changing soon as our Sports Betting Insider Jon Denton and I are diving head first into CFL betting action.
- BC Lions (+4.5) @ Saskatchewan Rough-Riders (-4.5) total 46.5 *FRIDAY*
- Toronto Argonauts (+5) @ Calgary Stampeder (-5) total 48.5 *SATURDAY*
- Ottawa Redblacks (+5) @ Edmonton Elks (-5) total 47.5 *SATURDAY*

REMEMBER – don’t bet based upon my recommendations. Do your research. Stay in your lane
