Ottawa Redblacks vs Saskatchewan Roughriders Prediction
The Saskatchewan Roughriders are coming off a brutal home loss to the Elks where the defense was a mess, and now they go on the road with short rest. The Ottawa Redblacks have won 3 straight games, they’ve allowed a combined 20 points in their last two games, and they’ve had an extra week to prepare. This couldn’t be much of a worse spot for the Roughriders. A 4-0 SU record at home and a 5-2 ATS record overall, I’ll keep backing the Redblacks until the tickets stop cashing.
