Edmonton Elks vs Saskatchewan Roughriders Prediction

Right when it looked like the Edmonton Elks were turning the corner, they get their boots smoked by the Blue Bombers in back to back weeks. I don’t know what to think of the Elks at this point. The Saskatchewan Roughriders put together back to back nice wins, and they have a defense that Travels. This Game is far more important to the Roughriders in terms of potential playoff hopes. The Roughriders are in better form and have more on the line. I’ll lay the field goal.
