“CFL 1978 MONTREAL ALOUETTES AT TORONTO ARGONAUTS”
From CFL Video
I just looked this up, before someone accuses me of being an expert on the Canadian Football League: The Montreal Alouettes were 8-7 in 1978 and made it all the way to the Grey Cup where they lost to the 10-4 Edmonton Eskimos, a team, that was barely over 500, makes to all the way to the CFL Championship. Similar to the 1979 Los Angeles Rams, that were 9-7 in the NFL,
Perhaps the 78 Alouettes were in a similar situation as the 79 Rams, a club with a mediocre record, but with a lot better personal then their 8-7 record would indicate..
The Toronto Argonauts however, had an awful 4-11 record in 78. So this wasn’t a matchup of great teams.
