Point Spread: Ottawa -3.5
Total: 56.5

<p>
Two teams coming off very disappointing matches play on Ottawa on Thursday night when the Lions visit the RedBlacks in Week 10 CFL action. The point spread line on this game opened at most betting establishments at Ottawa -3.5, but has dropped making the consensus betting line RedBlacks -3. The total hit the board at 56.5 and hasn’t moved.

BC will try and bounce back from a very disappointing 37-9 loss to Calgary that now has it a game and half in back of the Stampeders for first place in the West Division title race. The Lions had no answer for stopping the highest scoring team in the CFL last week and they are now facing a team that is averaging 27.5 points per game. Look for a better effort from BC quarterback Jonathon Jennings on Thursday night after he was pulled from last week’s game in the fourth quarter and replaced by Travis Lulay.

The RedBlacks slipped to 1-3 straight-up and 0-4 against the spread with last week’s 43-19 loss to Montreal as an 8.5-point home favorite. They are hoping to have Trevor Harris back in the lineup on Thursday night after missing the past three games with a knee injury. I believe that he can quickly return to the form that led to 1,499 passing yards and nine touchdown throws in his first five games when Ottawa went 3-1-1 SU (3-2 ATS).

BC Lions at Ottawa RedBlacks Free Pick

I like the RedBlacks at home in this one, but my “best bet” pick is still the OVER on the total despite the elevated 56.5-point line.
