CFL Week 13: Calgary Stampeders (3-8) Odds, Injuries, Preview, Depth Chart, Prediction

Game Preview

The Labour Day Classic is upon us, and there’s a lot on the line this year as the Calgary Stampeders take on the Edmonton Elks. The Stampeders, with a 3-8 record, are keen to get their season back on track after dropping three consecutive games. Their recent 39-31 loss to the Argonauts serves as a bitter reminder of the work ahead.

The Elks, on the other hand, are on an upswing, winning two games in a row. Their newfound energy comes courtesy of QB Tre Ford, who seems to be a game-changer for Edmonton. Will this annual clash serve as the turning point for Calgary, or will Edmonton sustain their newfound momentum?

Score Prediction

While the Elks have the momentum coming into this game, the Stampeders hold the home advantage and have history on their side. It’s bound to be a closely contested affair, but we predict the Stampeders will pull off a narrow win.

Final Score: Calgary Stampeders 27, Edmonton Elks 24

Additional Notes

The game will feature several tributes to the Canadian Armed Forces, continuing a tradition started in 2015 by the Calgary Stampeders. A CF-18 Hornet flyover and a performance of the national anthem by a trio from the Royal Canadian Air Force Band are scheduled.

Players to Watch

Stamps: REC Reggie Begelton, who has become a crucial player for QB Jake Maier, is second in the CFL in receiving with 814 yards.
Elks: QB Tre Ford has just been named the PFF CFL Player of the Month for August and will be critical in Edmonton’s plans for an upset.

Mark your calendars for this Monday; this Labour Day Classic is bound to be a barn burner.
