The man behind The Grueling Truth - Where Legends Speak

1) Calgary Stampeders

The Stamps lost 26-21 to a hot B.C. Lions team and the offense was a problem as Bo Levi Mitchell completed less than 50 percent of his passes.

Next Up: Host Saskatchewan Roughriders

2) Winnipeg Blue Bombers

Matt Nichols and the Blue Bombers have been rolling since coming off of their most recent bye week, and the rolling continued on Saturday against the Roughriders as they won their fourth game in a row with a 31-0 victory. The Bombers look poised to make a serious playoff run.

Next Up: Bye

3) Saskatchewan Roughriders

The Riders got shut down in Winnipeg, but they have still been, outside of Calgary, the most consistent team in the CFL throughout this season.

Next Up: @Calgary Stampeders

4) BC Lions

The B.C. Lions came out on top against the Calgary Stampeders on Saturday night with a 26-21 road victory to keep their playoff hopes alive. Wally Buono’s final regular season game at McMahon Stadium was a success, and the Leos are now 8-7 and just one game behind the Winnipeg Blue Bombers after picking up their fifth win in six games. The Lions look intent to give Coach Wally Buono a proper send-off in his final season.

Next Up: Host Edmonton Eskimos

5) Hamilton Ti-Cats

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats put on an offensive showcase in their 34-20 road victory against the Toronto Argonauts on Friday night, with quarterback Jeremiah Masoli completing 70% of his passes for 338 yards and four touchdowns. The Ti-Cats are now in a first-place tie with the Redblacks.

Next Up: @Ottawa Redblacks

6) Edmonton Eskimos

A dominant second half from the green-and-gold defense led the Edmonton Eskimos to a 34-16 victory over the visiting Ottawa REDBLACKS on Saturday afternoon at Commonwealth Stadium.

7) Ottawa Redblacks

The Redblacks continued their inconsistent play, losing to the Edmonton Eskimos 34-16. The Redblacks are a talented team who just can’t seem to get it together for more than a week or two at a time.
