Football Betting Lines

08/28/2010 - Edmonton, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Noel Prefontaine's 37-yard field goal in the final minute of play proved to be the difference, as the Edmonton Eskimos stunned the Saskatchewan Roughriders, 17-14, at Commonwealth Stadium.

Prefontaine was responsible for all of the points scored in the second half and a total of 11 overall as the Eskimos (2-6) snapped a two-game slide by posting 17 unanswered points to capture the victory.

Edmonton starting quarterback Ricky Ray was pulled early in the game, but came back to move the ball down the field late for Edmonton. Backup Jared Zabransky tossed one touchdown to Arkee Whitlock, but was also picked off twice.

The Roughriders (5-3), now just 1-3 on the road in 2010, were led by Darian Durant, who threw for more than 200 yards, but he was also picked off three times in the setback. Running back Wes Cates scored his league-leading 10th major of the campaign, while James Patrick logged three interceptions and now leads the CFL with a total of six through nine games.
