We have tradition on our side. Montreal usually plays poorly out here.Montreal Alouettes at BC Lions
History is not on the side of the Alouettes. They have had problems playing well traveling East to West across the country for a 4pm kick-off time in Vancouver. Troy Smith looked better as a quarterback but so did Kevin Glen for the Lions. In their first meeting on July 4th, Montrael exposed a week offensive line for BC but this time around it should be better as the starting five have a game together under their belt and the video of that July 4th game to learn from. You can't expect Andrew Harris to have a second game as good as he had last week in Regina, but you can expect someone else to step up and shine. The Alouettes are good but have not played well in BC Place. The Lions will move to 2-2. -- Chris Schultz
We played with good intensity and focus in Regina. Hopefully that will continue.
I think that most expect a win for us. As do I. But I would not be inclined to bet a lot of money on it.
Will we be prepared for the Alouette blitz? Will we be able to run the ball effectively? Will Troy Smith take a while longer to really establish himself as a top level CFL quarterback? It looks like he just might have the makings.
