Roughriders vs Alouettes Prediction 

Saskatchewan comes into this matchup on a three game losing streak and they have allowed 68 points in their last two. The Roughriders have really struggled down the stretch, but Harris is a very good quarterback. Montreal is 12-3 so far this year and they have scored at least 29+ points in four straight games. The Alouettes have played better defense in their last two games, but they allowed 30+ in the three previous games. This should be a great contest and I think Saskatchewan can keep it close, so I will take the Roughriders and the points here.
