Is the picking order published somewhere?

I think I would prefer Nashville. Jason Aldean/Lainey Wilson is the free music city ball drop concert.

idk. i read somewhere that vegas picks first and that sean callahan already said vegas asked rhule to play in their bowl, so idk
 



Nice location for the fans.

One of the worst draws Nebraska could have gotten when we have struggled against stopping the run, have an interim DC, and a freshman QB.

Utah is #2 in the country with an average of 270 rushing yards per game.

This game will be a bear for Nebraska.

I've lived in Vegas (80s) and SoCal (90s/00s) and got married in Vegas over 10 yrs ago.
I can agree with almost everything posted in this thread. The reason ex-pat Californian's have so much money is because of real estate prices and gov't ponzi-scheme pensions. Starting with Jerry Brown's (70s) administration the state made it harder to get building permits. The housing shortage drove up prices. The shortage was due to people fleeing the rust belt and Cali welcoming millions from south of the border as well as many other places.
A house that sold for 80k in 1975 now sells for over 2 million. Also, state/county/city employees fully vested have insane retirement packages. Some of them double & triple dip. When they retire, they sell their homes for millions and take those pensions to a state where 2 mil buys you a mansion instead of a Caleftornia middle class home.
Who buys those modest houses for 2 million? Corporations/individuals whose business model is partly (and sometimes exclusively) rental homes. Many of those rentals become clown houses. Single family homes end up being occupied by 15 people or more. I saw it first-hand in Calabasas; Sun Valley; Manhattan Beach; Mar Vista; Newport Beach; North Hollywood and Anaheim. And it was reported on the John and Ken show (AM radio) continually for many years. Plenty of others covered it as well.

My husband grew up in Vegas and went to UNLV. We used to make many trips back, but quit going around 2017/18. We always preferred the Station Casinos back then. They had nice sports books, but weren’t so big you’d get lost. He would go downtown for poker tournaments and I would head out to Redrock to hike. The only place we would go on the strip is an Irish bar that he lived in during college- Fitzpatrick maybe? It was pretty good.

I’m guessing Vegas has built up to Redrock and the station casinos are trash. Not sure if the Irish bar is still there we’ll probably stay at the D or Circa rather than on the strip.
 
Welp, Utah may rush for 400 yards. Horrible match up for us! Can’t sugar coat it at all! Yes, their rushing defense is really bad too, but we are going to be with an extremely unproven backfield and without our best offensive lineman. Yuck!! We can only hope they have a handful of guys opt out
 
I will be going.

Station Casinos, yes they were the best. My kids go to Redrock casino. As far as Redrock State Park, still my favorite.
 
I LOVE that we're facing a ranked team! Like they say, "A big challenge but an even bigger opportunity." I hope Lateef will be good to go but in sports is always next man up! Let's do this!
