Tiger-Cats 36, Argonauts 25: Jeremiah Masoli threw for 307 yards and four touchdowns as visiting Hamilton moved into a first-place tie in the East Division by beating Toronto for the second time in six days.

Masoli completed 18-of-25 passes and connected for two of his touchdowns with Brandon Banks, who totaled 153 yards on six catches for the Tiger-Cats (6-5) - winners of three straight games. Luke Tasker hauled in seven passes for 91 yards and a score while running back Alex Green added 104 yards from scrimmage and a key touchdown reception in the fourth quarter for Hamilton, which also defeated Toronto 42-28 on Monday.

McLeod Bethel-Thompson was 27-of-42 for 295 yards and a pair of touchdowns for the defending Grey Cup champion Argonauts (3-8), who have dropped three straight contests. Armanti Edwards made nine catches for 112 yards and a TD for Toronto, which also received a late 31-yard scoring strike from Bethel-Thompson to S.J. Green (eight receptions, 97 yards).

Masoli found Tasker in the right corner of the end zone for a 17-yard touchdown to open the scoring for the Tiger-Cats before Zackary Medeiros booted field goals of 36 and 22 yards to close the gap to 7-6 after one quarter. Masoli's 26-yard scoring strike to Banks and a rouge pushed Hamilton's lead to nine points, but Bethel-Thompson zipped a 10-yard TD pass to Edwards to pull the Argonauts within 15-13 at halftime.

Lirim Hajrullahu converted a 52-yard attempt and Masoli found Banks across the middle for a 78-yard touchdown to increase the Tiger-Cats' lead to 12 before James Franklin sneaked in from 2 yards away to cut the deficit to 25-19 after three quarters. Toronto punted on its first two possessions of the fourth quarter and Hamilton gave itself some breathing room on Green's 34-yard TD reception with 7:42 to go and another long field goal from Hajrullahu - this one from 50 yards out - for a 36-19 cushion.
