Don't forget to leave me a tip at the pay window! :)

[Jayvegas420]

I am all over Memphis, Tulsa, UCONN & Air Force.
Most particularly the Tulsa line stuck out. I expected a 17 or 18 point spread. When I saw 12.5 I jumped on it.
I would be surprised if this line doesn't reach 14 or 14.5 by kickoff.

Our picks this week are virtually identical. I also singled out the Baylor game because they can score 60+ per game & I am not completly sold on the SooneRS or their Defense.
I haven't looked at the App. St. Game or the Toledo line yet but, I may just blindly tail, as it appears you are starting to really heat up!

Good luck tonight, I like the over in Clemson/Wake.

Thank you for your post, as it is always welcome! Here is a comment I made on another thread regarding tonights Clemson/Wake Forest game.
"Clemson obviously is going to win the game based on there steller defense, but the question is can they cover the point spread playing QB Stoudt, as they have averaged only 18 points a game against Louisville, Boston College, and Syracuse. Also keep in mind the defense of Wake Forest playing much better as of late, giving up an average of 24 points a game.

One other factor to consider is the offense of Wake Forest, as they are averaging the lowest yards per play in the country, and now having to go against this defense of the Tigers from Clemson.

Conclusion: Stay away from the game unless playing strictly for entertainment purposes."

It is going to be a party this weekend for us, so I will see you at the pay window my friend! I will have the beer on ice, the bottle of Crown Royal ready to be opened, and the girls will be waiting to party!

**** One other comment I would like to make, and that is about the Baylor game, do not think for a moment that they do not know this game is of utmost important for them to gain entrance in the top 4 playoff, and to get in they will have to win in convincing fashion, so I am sure Baylor Head Coach Art Briles will be pulling out all the stops to not only win the game, but run up the score.

[Jayvegas420]

I think I'll heed the advice & stay away. That's a crazy stat, that Wake avgs the lowest gains per play.

Games tomorrow night are much more appealing.
So far I like Memphis/Temple under & I like Utah St. If the line stays lower than 7.5.

I remember your v.I.p. pics with hot chicks holding bottles of crown. That's why I remember you because that is my favourite drink.

[Urbanwildlife]

Good decision on all fronts amigo! Hopefully I can make it to Vegas in the near future when I return to visit the U.S for business or to visit friends, and we can enjoy some good times while enjoying a bottle of Crown Royal, providing you are in Las Vegas. I also really like Utah State, and will probably play the over, which is rare for me, as I do not play over/unders, as I do not have a feel for them, but in this game I do.

[Jayvegas420]

I'm Canadian, Urban & I am usually only relevant here at SBR when I am making one of my typically in lucrative runs in Sin City
I'll check in before the Utah St. Kick Off tomorrow!

[PaperTrail07]

Very Nice Urban....I hit NIU as well (parlay and straight).....AND my parlay rolls on....

[PaperTrail07]

I grew up in the same area as Stoudt..Heard and seen everything there is too see and hear about him....Tough Read Can make some amazing passes and Horrible Mistakes...I think the line is pretty sharp but if I had too, I'd lean Clemson in a roll....

Urban whats your favorite resturaunt in Vegas and what activities do u recommend?

i'm going to be there thanksgiving weekend

[Urbanwildlife]

I am a big fan of the Brazilian Steak Houses, and if you have never had the privilege of going to one, I highly suggest you try it out for a fantastic dining experience with the best of the best of meats and salad bars. Dinner is about $50.00 dollars, and worth every penny of it and more. In Las Vegas I would suggest the following two:

Texas de Brazil
6533 S. Las Vegas Blvd

Fogo de Chao
360 E. Flamingo Rd
(Behind the Hard Rock)

For a good seafood buffet:

**** Village Buffet in the Rio Hotel

Other Buffets that serve a variety of food I would highly recommend are:

**** Bacchanal Buffet in Cesars
****Studio B in the "M" Resort
**** the buffet in the Mirage

Activities:
**** I love to party so I am in the hotel bars and nightclubs if I can somehow get a pass to the nightclubs, as I do not like standing in lines for hours to get in.
**** Go and checkout the various casinos.
**** Get entertained by the various performers on the sidewalks, as some are very good, and others are pretty hilarious.
**** Checkout what shows are in the city when you will be there.
**** Go to the Rio Hotel and go to the rooftop bar for a great view of the city. It is called the Voodoo Lounge. This is a popular spot.

Favorite Sportsbook:
For me it is not even close, as I love the Sportsbook at the MGM, and this why I generally rent a condo at the MGM Signature, so I can be close to it.

**** I highly suggest before you go that you search on the internet for discounted tickets for shows and buffets. A could place to check is:

www.vegas.com
www.bestofvegas.com
www.vegastickets.com

For accommodations if you are looking for a very nice place at a good price I suggest you checkout the Wyndham Desert Hotel, which is just off the strip, walking distance, but they also offer shuttle service to all the places on the strip free of charge. I have stayed at this property on a number of occasions when I could not get a condo at the MGM Signature, and when the hotel prices on the strip were outrageous. Here is a listing for the property I took off of Craigslist. If this type of property interests you, send me a message and I will provide you the contact information of a couple I know who own condos there or rent condos for the owners. Many times you can get a beautiful condo for one hundred dollars or less a night.

You practically live here on SBR, so I am sure you know several people who reside in Las Vegas that can also be of help to you. When you go have fun and be safe.

Nice thread Urban

Thank you, and the posters here try to keep it a clean thread without all the bullshitt that goes into most threads, but as you can see we do get an occasional mentally challenged antagonist who stops by seeking attention.

Good luck to you, and I hope you are able to make many trips to the pay window this week, and throughout the rest of the year!

WEEK #11

Week #11 provides us with a real challenging line up. These games however caught my attention at first glance:

Penn State -5 at Indiana
Penn State has the top rushing defense in all of College Football, and Indiana can only run the ball, as Indiana has to play a true freshman QB that cannot pass the ball at all. He was 5 for 15 this past week against Michigan State.

Memphis -7 at Temple
I have watched Temple several times this year, and they are terrible and regressing, but they have caught a lot of breaks. In there win against East Carolina, Temple had only 135 total yards against a very poor East Carolina defense, where as East Carolina had 428 yards in there loss.

SMU at Tulsa -11
Both bad teams, but Tulsa is very capable of putting up points, something that is impossible for SMU

Connecticut -3.5 at Army.
Again both bad teams, but Army is worse with losses to Yale, Kent State, Wake Forest, Rice, and Air Force this past Saturday. In there last two games Connecticut has played well at East Carolina, and they beat Central Florida at home

Louisiana Monroe at Appalachian St -3
Appalachian State can put points on the scoreboard, something Louisiana Monroe has a problem with.

Air Force -6 at UNLV
Air Force is a much better team offensively, defensively and on special teams. UNLV defense 126th in rushing yards given up, Air Force 21st in rushing yards gained. UNLV is also giving up on the average 36 points a game, and this is against very average teams, as they have not played a top 25 team other than Arizona the first week of the season which they lost by 45 points.

Toledo -13 at Kent State
Toledo is averaging over 500 yards in offense a game, 257 yards passing, and 248 running. There defense is horrible, but Kent State is just plain horrible, averaging a measly 14 points a game on offense, while giving up 29 points, and now they are facing the powerful offense of the Rockets from Toledo.

Baylor +6 -116 at Oklahoma
Baylor has a great opportunity to win the game straight out, so I will gladly accept the 6 points.
Added:
Northern Illinois -3 -110
Do not think Ball State can stop the running game of Northern Illinois. I have watched Ball State twice this year and have not been impressed. Northern Illinois is also not impressive, but has the running game, and I like there QB.

Georgia Tech -3 -120 at North Carolina State
Georgia Tech is playing to well on both sides of the ball to lose this game.

cheers

Very nice Urban I always rent off VRBO at the signature myself...only place with a balcony besides the Cosmo-Plus you get your space and your not far from anything

Very few people who go to Las Vegas know or think about renting a condo at a daily rate, and most purchase air/hotel packages from the travel search engines Expedia, Orbitz, Travelocity, Priceline to name a few of the major ones, but renting a condo provides you so much more in the terms of space and luxury, as a condo offers you all the benefits of home, and depending when you travel, the cost can be the same price you would pay for a hotel room, or possibly lower. Anyone interested in renting a condo can send me a message I can provide you with the contacts I use, or you can checkout as PaperTrail07 noted the VRBO website which stands for Vacation Rentals By Owners. I have used them many times in my travels around the world. The good thing about VRBO is it eliminates the possibility of getting scammed, which is something you have to be concerned about if renting off of Craigslist.
Here are some links to the condos I recommend, but I suggest that you do not rent directly from them as the prices are inflated. Much better renting directly from the owners of the condos, or from a respectable rental source, which like I said I can provide to you.
