📡 SBR Edge: Tiger-Cats Lose Third in a Row
My Roughriders vs. Tiger-Cats prediction includes Roughriders -6.5 (-122) and Under 55.5 (-105). Harrison Frost is the likely starter for Hamilton, and he should struggle against the Roughriders' top-ranked defense.

🏆 Who will win Roughriders vs. Tiger-Cats?
I like the Roughriders to beat the Tiger-Cats by eight points on Saturday. The defending champion Roughriders have the second-shortest Grey Cup odds, while the Tiger-Cats have the second-longest, so it makes sense why Saskatchewan is such a heavy favorite, especially since Bo Levi Mitchell is still out for Hamilton. While there's value on Roughriders ML (-310 via DraftKings), I'm laying the points as my best bet at greater odds.
Score prediction: Roughriders 31, Tiger-Cats 23
💰 Roughriders vs. Tiger-Cats prediction & best bet
Roughriders -6.5 (-122)
Mitchell still hasn't returned for the Tiger-Cats, so Frost will likely start at quarterback against the defending champions. While he covered in a straight-up loss as an underdog last time out, Saturday is a bad spot to put money on the backup signal-caller.
The Roughriders allow the fewest points per game in the CFL (26.9) and limit opposing teams to the second-fewest rushing yards per game (77.4), so it's not like the Tiger-Cats will be able to rely on the run game. Roughriders -6.5 (-122) at FanDuel is the best line available among the top sports betting apps.

🔥 More Roughriders vs. Tiger-Cats picks
Under 55.5 (-105)
The Roughriders may be 5-3 to the Over this season, but three of those Overs came in their first three games.
Saskatchewan's defense has improved since then - it held the Tiger-Cats, with Jake Dolegala at quarterback, to just seven points earlier in the season - and has helped the Under hit in three of the Roughriders' last five games.
After Week 4, the Roughriders have only allowed 23 or more points to the Elks, the third favorite in the Grey Cup odds. Under 55.5 (-105) at Caesars is the best line available among the top sports betting sites.
