Tiger-Cats vs Argonauts Prediction 

Hamilton was able to stun Saskatchewan last week for the upset win, but they continue to be low scoring without Mitchell at quarterback. Toronto fell apart in the second half against Edmonton last week, but they have won two of their last three games. The Argonauts have scored 26 points or fewer in four of their last five games and will face a very tough Hamilton defense. Take the under once again here.
