Why are the BC Lions a good bet ATS?
British Columbia lost the final couple of games of the season, 16-35 at Saskatchewan and 9-26 versus Calgary, but before the two losses, the Lions had played great. They had won 3 in a row and 6 of their last 7.BC gets into the Eastern Division Semifinals due to CFL’s cross-over rule, which states that if the 4th place team in one division has more points than the 3 other teams in the other division, that team crosses over to the other Division Semifinals.Now that BC is here, they won’t squander their chance to make it to the Eastern Finals.Team Statistics

Why are the Hamilton Tiger-Cats a good bet ATS?
Like BC, Hamilton ended the CFL Regular Season on a losing streak. The Tiger-Cats dropped games to Ottawa twice and also lost to Montreal. The loss to Montreal is most disconcerting, but it happened in the final regular season week when Hamilton was all but assured to make it to the semifinals.The Tiger-Cats pulled back in the 28-30 Alouettes loss. Why not when you know you must be at full strength the very next week for when the playoffs start?Team Statistics
