Stampeders vs Tiger-Cats Prediction 

Hamilton comes into this game after a crushing loss in the fourth quarter last week and they continue to be without Bo Levi Mitchell at the quarterback spot. The Tiger-Cats have lost three of their last four games and they have allowed 31+ points in two of their last three. Calgary has dropped two of their last three games and they have allowed 30+ points in five straight. The Stampeders have an electric offense, but their defense has struggled. Take the over here, as I think Hamilton will be able to move the ball.
