Las Vegas - Clemson, the hoopsters, celebrated like it was 1999, or actually 1926, after beating North Carolina 79-76 on Saturday at the Dean Dome. Why such a party? The Tigers came to the Dome dragging an 0-59 losing streak against the Tar Heels at Chapel Hill. Yea, OH AND FIFTY NINE!!! And yea, NINETY FOUR YEARS!!! Can't blame the Clemson kids for getting loud and crazy, and they're probably still celebrating.

Las Vegas - Sunday starts with the Chiefs -9.5 points over the Texans. Revenge is just one of the courses on the table in Kansas City. The rest of the meal boils down to Patrick Mahomes.

Las Vegas - You ready? Lets rock. Kickin' it with the Vikings +7 points over the 49ers. Better on the road, and you have not done much for my bank account lately. Okay, I'll explain. First, better on the road refers to Minnesota. The Purple People turned up the heat last week, on the road, beating a really, really good Saints squad, and a really, really, REALLY good QB in Drew Brees. And my guy, Captain Kirk, was at the center of the storm.

Las Vegas - Starting to look at some of the prop wagers, and thinking about total points in all four NFL games this weekend. The Over/Under total is 189.5 points and we're thinking Under. Got out the calculator and checked all four games last weekend, and every game was an Under. The total points in all four was 146. And we might even have some FROZEN up in the Frozen Tundra. So, unless there's an explosion, we're going low.
