Streaking Tiger-Cats Hit the Road Against Calgary

Lost in the shuffle of Edmonton's undefeated 2011 season and Montreal's bid for a third-straight Grey Cup title, there have been two CFL clubs that have quietly put their work in early this year and seen it pay off.

This Saturday the 3-2 Calgary Stampeders will host the 3-2 Hamilton Tiger-Cats as each looks to improve their position in their respective division coming off of significant Week 5 victories.

For the hometown Stampeders it will be a third opportunity to win their first home game of 2011. Despite their above .500 record, is 3-0 on the road and winless at McMahon Stadium, a surprising trend for the team that finished with the top record in the CFL in 2010.

After struggling early, in Week 5 the Stampeders took down the reigning Grey Cup runner up Saskatchewan Roughriders. Will this Saturday serve as the next stepping stone for the franchise hungry to climb back into contention?

Coming off a victory over the Montreal Alouettes the Tiger-Cats are riding high and will be no easy opponent. After starting the season in a 0-2 hole, Hamilton has knocked off three straight with no signs of slowing down.

Is the momentum enough to vault them into the top of the East Division standings? They currently have 5/1 odds of winning the Grey Cup. The once-favored Stampeders currently sit third in the CFL with 7/2 odds.
