Roughriders vs Stampeders Prediction

Saskatchewan was able to start their season with a win over a very good BC Lions team and they will look to go 2-0 with a win here. The Roughriders don’t have a flashy offense, but Harris is solid at quarterback and their defense is very good. Calgary has an electric quarterback with Adams Jr, but they lost in heartbreaking fashion in their first game. I think this is a game that could go either way, so I will take the home team with the free point. Take the Stampeders here.
