Our friends at LeoVegas have released their 2019 Grey Cup odds.
Bo Levi Mitchell and the Stamps are opening the season as favourites; the defending champions are +260 to win the Grey Cup.
Considering the Stampeders have made it to the big game in four of the past five seasons, their favourite status is well-earned — but +260 is intriguing nonetheless.
The new-look BC Lions are +500, while the Ottawa REDBLACKS — despite numerous changes on the offensive side of the football — come in at +550.
Way down at the bottom of the long-shot bin are the Argonauts (+1200) and Alouettes (+1400). While the former has added some nice pieces on offence, and the latter made some big splashes in free agency, neither is favoured to make it out of the East Division.
