The 113th Grey Cup is set, and after 23 weeks of action across the regular season and playoffs, it’ll be the CFL’s two best teams colliding in Calgary on Sunday to be crowned champions.
The third and final meeting between the Montreal Allouettes and Edmonton Elks sets up a perfect, high-stakes conclusion to what has been a thrilling matchup this season. Week 3 saw the Elks eek out a 32-29 win at home before the Als returned serve in Week 10, rolling to a 48-30 victory.
The Alouettes were downright dominant throughout the year, finishing 14-4 in the East Division while going undefeated both at home and within the East. Their high-flying offense, led by Davis Alexander, was bested by just the .500 Calgary Stampeders, and otherwise scored nearly 100 points more than the next closest team.
After a 10-point win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the East Final, Montreal enters the Grey Cup as 3-point favourites over the Elks, despite the trek to Alberta awaiting the East's representative.
The Elks, for their part, were similarly a cut above within the West Division this season. They finished atop the pack, winning a division in which all five teams finished .500 or better by three games. With Justin Rankin providing the punch offensively, with his second straight 1,000-yard season, and a defense that led the league in scoring, Edmonton was able to control games within the competitive West.
But, with the Als favoured and even the tighter contest between the pair during the regular season ending up with a combined 61 points, CFL oddsmakers are expecting a thrilling conclusion to the 2026 season with a total of 55.5 on the board for Sunday. For the Elks to upset Montreal and win their first Grey Cup since 2015 in the home of their biggest rivals, they’ll need to slow the game down and grind down their opponent’s offense.
They say styles make fights, and with the league’s best offense coming up against its best defense in the Grey Cup, an awesome fight awaits on Sunday.
