TIGER-CATS (8-9) AT BOMBERS (7-10)
When: Sunday, noon.
Where: Canad Inns Stadium.
TV/Radio: TSN/RDS (blackout may be in effect); CJOB.
Bombers vs. Ticats: Winnipeg is 8-2 in its last 10 games against Hamilton and 1-1 this season. Late Friday, the Bombers announced that 27,007 tickets had been sold. Capacity is 29,530.
Five subplots to monitor:
A Bombers win gets them into the playoffs and earns them the right to host the East Division semifinal.
Bomber rookie rush ends Odell Willis and Phillip Hunt won the battle against Hamilton tackles Dan Goodspeed and Alexandre Gauthier the last time these teams met. Can they do it again?
Adarius Bowman (knee) will be back in Winnipeg’s lineup. He’s the club’s leading receiver with 55 catches for 925 yards and six touchdowns. How effective can he be?
The Bombers ground game has stalled of late and running back Fred Reid called out his offensive line following last week’s loss to the Montreal Alouettes. Can they find harmony and have a big day?
Veteran punter Troy Westwood has a history of success when it comes to handling the winds of November at Canad Inns Stadium. Will he provide his club with an edge in the field-position battle?
Key matchup: Tiger-Cats quarterback Kevin Glenn against the Bombers secondary. Glenn has gone three games without an interception. The Bombers will hope to buck that trend and force Glenn into errors.
Worth noting: The Bombers have won four of their last six games while the Ti-cats have won just two of their last six.
