This last week the Nevada Senate & State Assembly approved $750 mil. towards a new stadium in Las Vegas in an effort to lure away the Raiders and hopefully the Pac-12 Championship game. The venue also ups the ante for the Las Vegas Bowl, which currently is greatly handicapped by its current stadium located on the outskirts of town.

I hope Larry Scott is paying attention. Moving the bball tourney to Las Vegas has been a success. Ditching the office park in Santa Clara for the Las Vegas Strip would also be a huge win.

    Nick F. Saban location. That's a fact. Can't blame the location for the teams on the court. Off the court it has been awesome. MWC championship is in town as well while the WCC finishes up just before. It's now college hoops week in Vegas.

    I know. I was there. I had a great time watching the tournament in a sports book.

    Going to Vegas for conference tournament week is great as long as you don't waste your time attending the Pac-12 tournament games.

    And that's one of the reasons why it is the best conference tourney locale by far. Beats the crap out of Greensboro, Chicago, Kansas City. etc. Even beats the Catholics & Butler in MSG. The Pac-12 was Tom Hansen FS for not locating the tourney there from the get go & would be equally stupid for not getting in front of this Las Vegas situation for football.

    Predictable Sven take is predictable.

    I am very consistent about posting the truth.
