British Columbia Lions @ Montreal Alouettes picks

With Davis Alexander ruled out for the Als and Nathan Rourke in for BC, the line has moved from Montreal -5.5 to -2.5 which I think is an over-correction. McLeod Bethel-Thompson is coming off an ugly performance against Hamilton but he's a veteran and is usually more efficient than he was last week. He should bounce back against a Leos defense that has surrendered 32.7 ppg over the last three games. Meanwhile, Montreal's D leads the league in yards allowed per play (5.73) and turnovers forced (12) while ranking second in sacks (11). With the Als going 11-4 SU and 9-4-2 ATS in their last 15 games at home, back their stingy defense to lead them to a cover.
