This is a tough one for the gamblers. Going with the Massey prediction, I'd call it WL -5.5
Both teams lose the big advantage of tiring out the opponent. Both are deep. Both know - generally - what the other is doing (or, trying to do). Neither was really challenged this past weekend. They both got to watch one another (twice).
That said, I think both head coaches have a losing record playing 'against' said system. Both love to create chaos. How will they handle it in reverse?
Gannon has struggled against other top teams this year (outside of the PSAC, which had very few good teams). The gym is going to be very loud and probably 96% for the home team.
All of that mumbo jumbo said, I think the spread is pretty good. Which way would I bet that WL -5.5 ? I'll have to think about that one a little more.
