T.M. Selection: Tiger-Cats/Lions OVER.

I am on the over in the Hamilton Tiger-Cats vs BC Lions game on Thursday. The Ti-Cats haven't looked good in their games this year, they have been putting up points in their games lately but their defense has been terrible. They have given up 23+ points in every game this year and I think this is going to be another game where they give up a ton of points. Their offense hasn't been terrible though, they have still put up 25+ points in 3/4 of their previous 4 games and I think they will put up some points here too, but I expect their defense to get steamrolled in this game. The Lions have played in 4 games this year but they have won 3 of them and have pretty much gone over the total in all of those games. They just lost their 1st game of the year and had their worst offensive shoring in that game, putting up just 22 points while their defense was steamrolled giving up 43 points in that game. The Lions had put up 34+ points in all of their games before that though, and they have looked really good in all of those games as they were killing teams by large margins. They have been a great offensive team all year and I expect them to continue that here playing in this home game where their offense has been even better. Their defense has looked shaky though and has given up 22+ points in their 2 most recent games. I think the Lions are going to put up a ton of points on the Ti-Cats here since their defense hasn't been good all year and BC has had a great offense in their home building. Their defense has looked shaky lately though, and the Ti-Cats have still been putting up points consistently in their games. I expect both teams to put up points here with 2 good offenses here but 2 bad defenses. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 41-24 Lions.
