A dozen years, in fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But thanks to a 12-4 record this season, the Riders are in a promising position to return to the CFL&#8217;s championship stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not like Saskatchewan has been completely hapless in recent years. The team has played in the West Division final in three of the past five seasons, but Winnipeg had its number each time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What has buoyed the Riders to so much success this year? A truly balanced approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Saskatchewan is top-two in the CFL in total and scoring defence, as well as total offence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Riders&#8217; quarterback (Trevor Harris) is No. 2 in passer rating, their running back (A.J. Ouellette) is second in rushing yards, and they have two of the eight CFL receivers with 1,000+ yards (KeeSean Johnson, Dohnte Meyers).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Saskatchewan has won eight of its past 11 games and shows no signs of slowing down as it approaches the postseason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading insights\">CFL betting notes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Going 2-0 against the Grey Cup favourites is quite a feather in the cap of the Stampeders (+525). Losing by multiple scores in four straight games was not. We&#8217;ve seen the very good and the very bad from Calgary this year, but the positives still outweigh the negatives. The Stampeders bounced back nicely from their four-game skid to beat the Tiger-Cats 37-20 in Week 19.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Tiger-Cats (+300) top the CFL&#8217;s East Division, with a half-game lead on the Alouettes, but they do own the head-to-head tiebreaker. Hamilton can score with the best of them, thanks in large part to the epic season that wideout Kenny Lawler is having (82.3 yards\/game, 14 TDs in 17 games).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Alouettes (+325) are surging up the odds board and just got QB Davis Alexander back from injury. Montreal is now 6-0 in Alexander&#8217;s starts and 3-7 otherwise. The Als have won three straight and have never lost when Alexander starts (10-0 in his career).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nathan Rourke and the Lions were +1,500 not too long ago and are now better than 5-to-1 to win the Grey Cup. BC is on a four-game heater, and Rourke paces in the CFL in passer rating and ranks first in passing yards. BC&#8217;s defence is figuring things out, allowing 27 or fewer points in each game during its win streak.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"thestar\">Looking to get started? <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNzQxMyZsPTEzNTI3NDExJnA9MjMyNDM%3D\">Sign up here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s the usual suspects atop the CFL Grey Cup odds leaderboard as we near the end of October.
