Cameron Dukes is completing 72.1 percent of his passes for 1,398 yards, 7 touchdowns and 6 interceptions.

Toronto Argonauts vs Saskatchewan Roughriders Prediction

The Saskatchewan Roughriders beat the Argos back in July by a touchdown, so there should be some confidence heading into this one. The problem is the Roughriders have been a mess over the last month, not getting stops defensively and being limited offensively with no running game. The Toronto Argonauts have played their best ball all year at home, where they’re 4-1 SU, and they’ve had an extra week to prepare for this contest. The Argonauts are just an attractive team overall, given they’re first in run offense and run defense. Only laying 2.5 points, I have to lay the reasonable chalk with the Argonauts at home along with the rest advantage.
