Crappy way to start my 5<SUP>th</SUP> year posting with the La Tech game…..
<O
- Bizarre start to the La Tech game was an ominous sign of things to come. A 15 yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct before the kickoff? Hawaii performs their Haka War dance 75 yards OFF the field and OUTSIDE the stadium and gets flagged? Hawaii has never been penalized for the Haka before, and now they do for doing it far away and before the game starts? La Tech gets the ball at the 50 to start the game….
<O
- Nick Saban disciple Dooley definitely has La Tech going in the right direction…La Tech has a bright future…La Tech and their fans treated this game like the Super Bowl and played like it, my respect goes out to their program.
<O</O
- Hawaii played terrible and La Tech played perfect. Three Hawaii turnovers (to zero) led to 17 La Tech points, more penalties, two missed field goals, several dropped passes, and blown defensive assignments. Southern heat and humidity put Brennan and several other players on IV fluids…..and <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com
<st1
<st1lace>Hawaii</ST1lace></st1:State> still won…..
<O
- </O
- Brennan was awesome as usual……<st1:State><ST1Hawaii</st1:State> should not be Top 25…..and again, even if <st1:State>Hawaii</st1:State> runs the table they should NOT be allowed into the BCS.
I went to the last UNLV game and will be headed to Vegas tomorrow for this game as well. Like before, more than half of UNLV’s stadium will be Green with <st1:State><ST1Hawaii</ST1</st1:State> fans….Las Vegas is called the 8<SUP>th</SUP> Island for a reason. 50,000 Hawaiians call Vegas their home and an estimated 20,000 more are expected to make this trip. Everyone comes to <st1:State>Hawaii</st1:State> for vacation; everyone in H<st1:State>awaii</st1:State> goes to <st1:City>Las Vegas</st1:City> for vacation.
<O</O
This game, if it is like the last game, will be the most exciting sporting event you can EVER go to. You take 20,000 drunk, gambling Hawaiians and throw them with 15,000 or so UNLV fans from the trailer parks and you get mayhem….UFC has got nothing on this event. Last game I witnessed at least 7 absolute brawls in the stands including one guy getting stabbed next to me and literally falling about 10 feet into a tunnel. Security and LVPD were stretched so thin people were leaving the game early in hoards to get out of the mayhem…..

My Picks and Reasons Why:
<O</O
<st1:State><ST1Hawaii</st1:State> is going to be such an unpopular pick this week with the way they played last week. Great……someone posted the record of betting against the line movement of Hawaii games last year, and it was like 75%+…..My largest bets last year were against Alabama and Boise when everyone pounded the line up against Hawaii…..
<O</O
So <st1:State>Hawaii</st1:State> played a terrible ass game against an inspired team… So UNLV played perfect chip away offense versus <st1:State>Wisconsin</st1:State>……
<O</O
<st1:State><ST1Hawaii</st1:State> got their scare (honestly, they should have lost) and will definitely adjust….
<O</O
You saw Brennan and company at La Tech, nothing is wrong with the offense…..600 yards ain't too shabby despite looking horrid…..a quick hitter offense is exactly what UNLV does not need to see…..
<O</O
It’s gonna be hot in Vegas, but it will dry heat…..much better than <st1:City>Ruston</st1:City>, <st1:State>La.</st1:State> Also, this game has an evening start time and should be a little cooler.
<O</O
No bet yet, but I can only see value in <st1:State>Hawai</st1:State>, especially if the line goes under 17 like I expect…..
<O</O
Will place 550 to win 500 at Golden Nugget at -17 or better…..
<O</O
1100 to win 1000 on OVER 6 Fights in stands…..(I expect more security, but this will be a large and hostile H<st1:State>awaii</st1:State> crowd on vacation)
<O</O
1100 to win 1000 on UNLV -2 in Brawls Won (Most fights I saw last time were started by drunk Hawaiians, and UNLV fans tend to carry weapons and defend their home turf well).
<O</O
GL in whatever you play……:seeya:
