CFL Football Preview Week 13There's still plenty of football to be played north of the border as the CFL enters Week 13. The struggling Ottawa Renegades host the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to kick off the week on Friday night. Doubleheader Saturday sees the Calgary Stampeders visit the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and the B.C. Lions host the Montreal Alouettes. The Edmonton Eskimos will try to get back on the winning track Sunday afternoon when they travel to Saskatchewan to battle the Roughriders.Here's a closer look at those match-ups: Friday, September 16Winnipeg at Ottawa - 8:00 pm EDTThe Blue Bombers storm into the nation's capital Friday night looking for a repeat of their Week 9 performance versus the Renegades, when Winnipeg dropped Ottawa 38-17 as a 3-point home underdog. Bombers QB Kevin Glenn had his best game of the season, completing 20-of-27 passes for 357 yards and three touchdowns. The oddsmakers don't expect the Bombers to notch another win against Ottawa as they set the Renegades as a 3.5-point favorite. The Renegades are currently riding a three-game losing streak in which their defense hasn't shown up. Ottawa has allowed 140 points in their last three games while their offence has only been able to muster 62 points. That includes an embarrassing 61-27 loss to B.C. last week. The downturn in Ottawa's defense has been good for any OVER bettors as the Renegades' three losses have all been OVERs after a run of five straight UNDERs. The Bombers have also lost three in a row after a close 19-17 loss to Saskatchewan last week. Win or lose Friday night Winnipeg will still be last in the West and it doesn't look like the Bombers will be playoff bound this season. Saturday, September 17Calgary at Hamilton - 7:00 pm EDTThe Calgary Stampeders got some bad news earlier this week when they learned starting quarterback Henry Burris could be lost for the rest of the season after undergoing surgery to repair torn ligaments in his thumb. Luckily for the Stamps though they get to face the cellar-dwelling Hamilton Tiger-Cats in their first game without Burris at the helm. This is the first time these two teams have clashed this season after Hamilton won both meetings last season. Those two wins last season don't mean much to the oddsmakers who set the Stamps as a 3-point favorite. Without Burris Calgary will turn to backup QB Jason Gesser to lead the offense on Saturday. Gesser looked good in relief of Burris last week, completing 3-of-3 passes for 45 yards and a touchdown in Calgary's 16-11 win over Edmonton. The Tiger-Cats signed former Hec Crighton Trophy winner Jesse Lumsden last week, but don't expect the all-time leader in Canadian university football rushing to make an immediate impact. Lumsden will probably start his CFL career on special teams and gradually work his way into the Ti-Cats' running game. The Hamilton offense needs all the help it can get after they were blown out 48-0 by Toronto last week. Montreal at B.C. - 10:00 pm EDTIn what should be the premier matchup of the week the Montreal Alouettes travel to B.C. to take on the Lions. This is the first game between these two teams this season after B.C. defeated Montreal twice last season. In fact the Lions have won their last five games versus the Als, with their last loss to Montreal coming way back in 2002. The Lions will need to win by at least a touchdown this time if they want to cover the 7-point spread the oddsmakers have given them. Montreal got their offense in gear last week with a 41-18 win over Ottawa and their offense should get another boost this week with the probable return of receiver Ben Cahoon. Montreal needs a win to climb over the .500 mark and inch closer to first place in the East. The Lions are still undefeated at 10-0 and had any questions about the health of quarterback Dave Dickenson answered last week when Dickenson threw for 262 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 17-of-21 passing in B.C.'s 61-27 blowout of Ottawa. The Lions defense and special teams were also strong in that game with the defense picking off four passes and the special teams scoring a pair of touchdowns. Sunday, September 18Edmonton at Saskatchewan - 4:30 pm EDTThe Edmonton Eskimos and Saskatchewan Roughriders meet for the first time this season Sunday afternoon. The Riders dropped the Eskimos twice last season, but have only been able to pull out wins versus the two worst teams in the CFL, Hamilton and Winnipeg, this season. The Eskimos opened as a 2.5-point favorite this time around. Edmonton lost their rematch with Calgary last week and now sits at 7-4, second in the West. Eskimos QB Ricky Ray had a rough game, throwing three interceptions and only one touchdown. In Saskatchewan the Riders have won two in a row since coach Danny Barrett named Marcus Crandell the starting quarterback. The real star in those two wins was running back Kenton Keith who rushed for 269 yards on 30 carries.
