Follow usNothing personal against to the 3 traditional rivalry matches, but the most interesting clash on Labor Day weekend in the CFL looks to be the battle between organizations from opposite ends of the country.
The Lions – Alouettes game tonight in Montreal is more than just an opener to Week 14, ahead of Roughriders – Blue Bombers, Argonauts – Tiger-Cats, and Elks – Stampeders.
The Lions have secured victories in 5 straight matches after a 1-5 start to secure a place in the middle of the standings in a tight West Division race, while the Als lead the league at 9-2.
“The quarterbacks both lead their own way. Everyone has a specific play that makes him unique,” shared Lions LB Darnell Sankey, a teammate of Alexander in the last 3 seasons in Montreal. “It is no luck that they are playing in this league.”
There are a few things in common between the 2 quarterbacks: both were born in 1998, both can run when needed, and both have a similar physical appearance. Who is the favorite to win the upcoming match between the two? You can find this on the best sports betting sites in Canada.
Also, neither of them has won the Grey Cup as QB1, and the race to do it first is on.
