Toronto has been playing solid football under new head coach Marc Trestman and leads the East division. The Argonauts are coming off an impressive 27-24 come from behind win over the Grey Cup champion Ottawa Roughriders last week and look poised to take control of the East.
The Roughriders and the Argonauts meet for the first time this season. The Roughriders split last season’s series opposite Toronto, winning the latter of the matchups on October 15th of last year, by a score of 29-11 from BMO Field.
Argos head coach Marc Trestman and Riders HC Chris Jones have never before squared off as head coaches but starting quarterbacks Ricky Ray and Kevin Glenn have a long history against each other.
Saturday’s game will mark the 17th time Ray and Glenn have been head-to-head starters, with Ray holding a 9-6 advantage along with one tie.
