BC is still in the hunt for a playoff spot at 6-8 SU (5-8-1 ATS), but the fact that it has just one SU victory in its last seven games while going 1-5-1 ATS does not instill all that much confidence that the Lions can still turn things around. The loss of quarterback Travis Lulay for the season did not help the cause with backup Jonathon Jennings still struggling with consistency throwing the ball from week to week.

BC Lions at Winnipeg Blue Bombers Free Week 17 Game Pick
The Blue Bombers fell to 10-4 both SU and ATS with last week’s loss to Hamilton in a game where quarterback Matt Nichols injured his throwing hand. His playing status for this game has been upgraded to probable, but there is a still a concern for Winnipeg’s top playmaker on offense. Assuming he can go, I would lean towards the OVER in this West Division clash since it has gone OVER in six of the last seven meetings.
