8 Unit Play. Take #291/292 Ottawa Redblacks vs. Edmonton Eskimos – Over 50.5 (6:05 PM, Sunday, November 29, ESPN 2)
Two teams that have been trending to the over will meet in the Grey Cup on Sunday afternoon at Investors Group Field in Winnipeg when the Ottawa Redblacks take on the Edmonton Eskimos for the CFL Championship. Ottawa has posted an 8-1 record to the over in their last nine games where they faced a team with a winning record and they have gone an excellent 8-3 to the over in their last eleven games following a straight up win. The Eskimos have been an over team as well in the spot they are in here on Sunday as they have gone 5-1 to the over in their last six games following a straight up win and they have gone over the posted total in five of their last six games overall. Throw in the fact that the Eskimos have gone a near perfect 4-1 to the over in their last five playoff games, including their win over Calgary in the West Division Finals last week and that’s where we’ll have our play as we see both teams moving the ball and putting points on the board Sunday in Winnipeg.
***Side Note: We have a 5-Unit Play on Edmonton at +500 to win the Grey Cup that we released with our Week 1 CFL Plays. There was a thought to try and middle the game when the number opened up close to 9 but now that’s it’s down around 7, we’re just rooting for the Eskimos to win outright so we can cash that nice futures ticket!***
