Las Vegas - Can you name the ONLY coach in any of the major pro sports that has a perfect record? Lemme give you a little help. Vancouver fired Travis Green on Sunday and hired Bruce Boudreau. The Canucks have played twice since Double B took over, and are a PERFECT 2-0! Obviously, that's a small sample, but it looks like Van City is coming back to life. If you're not familiar with Boudreau, he's a hockey lifer, and has made coaching stops in Washington, Anaheim and Minnesota.

Las Vegas - Watts UP! If there's one player that can wreck a game plan, it's T.J. Watt. The baby Watt makes the most cash of all the brothers, and he is WORTH it. In games that he has played for the Steelers, they're 6-2. Without Watt, Pittsburgh is 0-3-1. OUCH! And T.J. gets to face a Minnesota team WITHOUT superstar WR Adam Thielen.

Las Vegas - Of course it's a little early, but you can bet on the College Football Championship game. Naturally, everyone assumes it's gonna be Alabama vs. Georgia, and naturally, after the beatdown in the SEC title game, everyone assumes that 'Bama will be the favorite.

Las Vegas - Took my first look at all the college bowl lines, and MAN, did one game stick out. It's the Jimmy Kimmel L.A. Bowl at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Yes, THAT Jimmy Kimmel!!! It'll be Oregon State vs. Utah State, and the Beavers opened up as a -7.5 point favorite. Nothing against the Beavers, but DAM, we're LOVING the Aggies from Logan. Reasons to come, but we're gonna BANG this game with BOTH HANDS before the line drops. Like RIGHT NOW!!!

Las Vegas - If you're wondering why this is the second lowest Over/Under total on the board this week, the answer is easy. Buffalo ranks FIRST in the league in total yards allowed (275.2 per game) and is second in points allowed (16.5). New England has allowed 316.7 total yards per game, which is 4th best on the pecking list, but is NUMBER ONE in points allowed, holding teams to 15.8 points per. So, maybe we look Under.
