CFL Showdown: Calgary Stampeders vs. Ottawa Redblacks – A Tale of Overconfidence and Underdog Hope
July 31, 2025 | 7:30 PM CT | Ottawa Redblacks (Home)

The Stampeders, favored at -4.5 spreads (1.87) with a moneyline of +1.45 (implied 69% win probability), are here to play tough — or maybe just play tougher than they actually are. Their implied probability suggests bookmakers think they’re about as likely to win as a Tim Hortons customer is to resist a free coffee. Still, that -4.5 spread feels like the line was drawn by a fan who’s seen Calgary’s offense stall more times than they’d admit.

Ottawa, at +4.5 spreads (1.95) and a moneyline of +2.8 (implied 35.7% win probability), are the classic "sleeping giant" — or maybe just a giant who’s really good at napping. Their +4.5 line gives them a fighting chance, though their 35.7% implied odds suggest the books aren’t betting on a miracle. Still, in the CFL, a 4.5-point cushion is basically a free touchdown if you’re good at field position.

The Total: 52.5 points (Over/Under: 1.91). This number feels like a compromise between "let’s see some points" and "let’s not embarrass the defense." With Calgary’s offense sputtering and Ottawa’s D looking like it’s been practicing with a net full of bricks, the Under might be the smarter play — unless you’ve bet on "Most Likely to Throw an Interception" (a prop that, oddly, isn’t listed here).

Player Props? Sigh. The JSON provided no player-specific wagers, which is a shame. We were all hoping for a "Dakota Prukop’s Next Pass: Complete or Into the Sun" prop. Alas, the books have left us in the dark — like a CFL game in July.

Final Prediction: Calgary wins, but not by much. Expect a score like 24-20 — or, in CFL terms, "Calgary wins because they’re better at math." Take the Under 52.5 unless you enjoy watching quarterbacks turn touchdowns into pick-sixes.

Remember: These odds are brought to you by the letter "C" and the number "FL" (for "Canadian Futility, Limited"). 🏈
