Montreal @ Saskatchewan

Quick turnaround re-match from 4 days ago when Montreal registered a 44-24 home victory on Thanksgiving Day. That game satisfied the Montreal need to exact Grey Cup revenge in front of their faithful crowd while also serving as their final tune-up heading into the Playoffs. Motivational angles are polar opposite in this contest as Montreal has chosen to rest a host of their key players including the most explosive CFL trio of QB Davis Alexander and the league's Top 2 receivers Tyson Philpot & Tyler Snead. Backup veteran QB Dustin Crum will start. Meanwhile Saskatchewan is highly motivated since a win here will secure a Playoff spot for them. Saskatchewan also figures to get a significant boost from the return of starting WR Samuel Emilus and potentially the team's leading WR KeeSean Johnson. Having 2 if not all 3 of his premier targets back likely helps QB Trevor Harris begin to re-ignite the often injured offense. Figure healthier Roughriders off the previous game where they scored 24 points & gained 360 yards can improve on those numbers here in this situation. Also note that the Montreal starting defense has been just average all season and if multiple backups play then Saskatchewan could have an easier time posting the necessary 33+.

PLAY: Saskatchewan Team Total OVER 32.5

Consultant Bio

Rob Veno has been entrenched in the sports handicapping community for 33 years. He was a major component in the success of Sportsmemo from its inception as a daily radio show in 1998. His 5% Bluechip releases have become synonymous with success, and he's carved a place for himself among the nation's elite handicappers. Rob's fundamental analysis of football, basketball, and baseball on the college and pro levels has him regarded as one of the best in the business at breaking down games. Rob began to make an imprint on the Las Vegas scene in the mid-1990s with his weekly football and basketball newsletter, which contained game selections and analysis. Over 30 sportsbooks on and off the strip, plus the famous Las Vegas Gambler's Book Club and newsstands nationwide, carried the publication, which expanded his recognition. He was subsequently invited into Las Vegas' most prestigious handicapping contests of that time, the Stardust Invitational in 1996 and 2004 and the Sunset Station Invitational in 2000. A veteran of sports handicapping radio, Rob began in 1992 by co-hosting a weekly Friday night show at 840 AM KVEG. He went on to do numerous live shows as a guest analyst from casino sportsbooks across the Las Vegas Valley, working with a litany of respected hosts and the most recognized handicappers in the business. Rob finally settled in as one of the mainstays on the daily Vegas Sportswire betting show, which ultimately became the famed Sportsmemo Radio Show and subsequent Podcast. His expertise has been heard on radio stations across the country over the years as he has done a multitude of guest analyst segments. Rob joined WagerTalk in the summer of 2020 and has quickly become a prominent member of their world-class handicapping roster. Rob is a Connecticut native, and after spending 11 years in Las Vegas from 1991-2002, he now resides outside of Philadelphia with his wife.
