USABomberfan Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 Well, we do not need SSK's help anymore, not with us now making the playoffs. I would however like to see BC knock em down and ensure they don't get to host the WSF. And .... If they win this and we win in Edmonton next week or they lose against CGY, my fantasy of kicking down the doors of Mosaic as well as owning the melonheads butts in the playoffs will come to reality. rebusrankin 1

Thank God- I just threw up in my mouth a little, thinking I might have to cheer for the criders. If the Lions win the next two Games, don't they host the WSF? That is what I am cheering for.

rebusrankin Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 If BC wins, Riders can't host the WF, which would make me happy. I mean not as happy as us clinching a playoff spot but happy. blue_gold_84 1
Dragon37 Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 As much as I hate the Riders, the thought of going East or BC finishing above us is far less desirable. So I want Saskatchewan to win or tie today and Calgary and Winnipeg to win next week. That will force BC East and Winnipeg to go to Saskatchewan. I really don’t want to go East or face BC. Mosaic and Calgary are tough places to play but both teams offences are far less scary.

Bigblue204 Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) I'm good with this team playing anywhere and anyone. Bc is playing well, but I think the blue can play with them. Same with Ssk...though I'm not solid they are playing as consistently as BC has been. And Hamilton is hurting at the worst time. Losing Banks is going to really hurt them.

Jpan85 Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 It doesn’t really matter winning two road games is tough no matter east or west. Nobody ever mentions teams vary rarely go to Grey Cup having to play two on the road. Can’t remember last time it happened. JCon 1
JCon Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 Start the bus, drive West through Regina, stop briefly, then off to Calgary. Once we're done there, drive on up to Edmonton. That's how I predict our postseason will go. It ain't going to be easy but I think we're the best team in the league right now. Wanna-B-Fanboy, Floyd, Fred C Dobbs and 5 others 4 2 2
Wanna-B-Fanboy Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 I love it. It's like a logical road trip to win the cup. Noeller and JCon 2
White Out Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 So what happens if we ask and bc all finish 11-7?
AKAChip Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 3 minutes ago, White Out said: So what happens if we ask and bc all finish 11-7? Sask second, us third, BC fourth. Due to head to head tiebreakers.
AKAChip Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 Would be extremely nice to see B.C. lose so we can have essentially a bye next week against Edmonton and see some backups. JCon and Mr Dee 2

White Out Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 I honestly think we're better off crossing over but it's not a huge margin. I actually think Ottawa is a better team than Saskatchewan or Calgary.
AKAChip Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 I could be wrong, but I think the tiebreaker is record against all tied teams so instead of head to head record it’s head to head to head record. We are 2-3 against sask and BC, BC is 3-1 in that scenario and Sask is 2-3 in that scenario. Then it would go to point differential in those games which I believe we would end up having based on our big wins against BC and Sask. so BC, us , Sask I stand corrected.
AKAChip Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 Nevermind, I’m wrong again. If BC beats Sask they end up 2-2 combined, Sask ends up 3-2 combined and we get the crossover.

The hottest team in the league the last month, IMO. That old adage comes to mind: "it's not how you start, but you finish." As for this game, I don't care who wins. I just hope the two teams lay a beating on one another. bustamente and JCon 2
Jpan85 Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 Just seven weeks ago people said Toronto and Montreal were better teams lol. blue_gold_84 and JCon 2
USABomberfan Posted October 27, 2018 Author Report Posted October 27, 2018 We need SSK to lose badly today so that they have no confidence going into the playoffs.

Or.......If they win their fans will be so stupid about the win that the players will think they have all ready won the cup, and they will go into the playoffs way over confident.

Definitely looked like a Grey cup team yesterday...
SpeedFlex27 Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 Hope they both beat each other up.

jazzsax Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 Honestly playoffs will be a new season. 1) Semi Final - November 10th. If we go into Mosaic, it will likely be cold. If we go into Ottawa or Hamilton, same possibility. BC is the only place whether won't factor at all 2) Division Final - November 17th - Cold no matter where it is. 3) Grey Cup - November 24th - freezing cold Edmonton igloo. (Remember 1984 anyone?) Much like last night, those games are going to be about who makes the most turnovers, and big plays. Offense wins games. Defense wins championships. No stupid mistakes, with the threats we have, we have a good shot. Just hopefully the next goose egg we lay is either next week in Edmonton, or next summer in the pre season...
