TORONTO — Can the Montreal Alouettes shock the world… again?

The Als already hold the biggest upset of the 2017 CFL season, a 30-23 win over the Calgary Stampeders back in Week 4. That cautionary tale, however, has had no impact on anyone’s picks this week, as the fans and writers are picking the Stamps once again in a landslide.

While every writer is taking the Stampeders (as per most weeks), 97 per cent of fans are going with the home team.

Can the Stampeders win their 10th game in a row and 17th straight at McMahon Stadium, or will the Alouettes pull off the impossible?

Week 15 arrives at the intersection of two teams on the inside looking out of the playoff bubble. The REDBLACKS and Riders are both in a post-season position, yet neither is comfortable heading into a cross-division clash on Friday night at TD Place.

While Ryan Lindley makes his second career start as Drew Tate and Trevor Harris continue to mend, the Riders hope Kevin Glenn and Duron Carter are healthy enough to lead them on a late-season run.

The Alouettes and Stampeders are two teams headed in opposite directions. The Als have been outscored 207-89 throughout their six-game losing streak, losing by an average margin of 35-15, while the Stampeders have won nine straight games and 16 in a row on home turf.

While the numbers suggest Calgary should win handily, there’s a caveat: The Stamps are 3-4 against the Als since the start of 2014, including their one and only loss this season. Can the Als pull off the upset of the year?

After averaging 65.4 rushing yards through the first 11 games, the Argos’ ground game spiked the last two weeks, totaling 385 yards. Has the emergence of James Wilder Jr. and a dangerous rushing attack has made the Boatmen a legitimate threat to win the Grey Cup?

We’ll know more on Saturday, when two surging teams decide their season series. While an Argos victory would help secure the East, they’ve yet to win at Tim Hortons Field. Meanwhile, the Ticats have won three of four under June Jones and Jeremiah Masoli, including their win on Labour Day.

It’s hard to pick a more defining game than Saturday’s Winnipeg-Edmonton clash, which will either drastically simplify or complicate the West Division playoff picture.

Regardless of who’s slumping and who’s surging — the Eskimos have lose five straight and the Bombers have won seven of eight — there’s plenty on the line in this week’s marquee matchup.
