<p>Game five of the Western Conference Finals is set for Saturday night when the Dallas Stars visit the Vegas Golden Knights. Dallas has not had an easy time in any game this series, but the Stars are just going to take it one game at a time and hope to bring it back home for a game six. Below is my NHL pick for the Dallas Stars vs Vegas Golden Knights.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-dallas-stars-vs-vegas-golden-knights-betting-pick"><a></a><a></a>Dallas Stars vs Vegas Golden Knights Betting Pick</h2>



<p>The Pick: Vegas Golden Knights -138</p>



<p>This game will be played at T-Mobile Arena at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 27, 2023.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-why-bet-the-vegas-golden-knights"><a></a>Why Bet the Vegas Golden Knights:</h2>



<p>✅ Vegas has been hot and won five of their last six games played.</p>



<p>✅ The Golden Knights have won six of their last seven games in Vegas.</p>



<p>✅ Dallas has lost four of their last six games overall.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-dallas-starts-staying-alive"><a></a>Dallas Starts Staying Alive</h2>



<p>Dallas fell into a 0-3 series hole and all they can do it take it one game at a time. That started in game four when they had to come back from one goal deficits twice just to force overtime. The Stars kept the series alive with an overtime winner.</p>



<p>Game four got started with an early Vegas goal, just 4:17 into the game, but the Stars stayed with it and answered to tie the game up at one going into the first intermission. Vegas went ahead again 10 minutes into the second period, but, again, the Stars answered and tied the game up at two heading into intermission. There was no scoring in the third period, but Dallas got their first win of the series with a Joe Pavelski goal 3:18 into overtime.</p>



<p>Joe Pavelski was joined on the scoresheet by Jason Robertson who scored his 5<sup>th</sup> and 6<sup>th</sup> goals of the playoffs to keep the Stars in it. Four different Stars recorded at least one assist in the victory.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-vegas-golden-knights-wont-panic">The Vegas Golden Knights Wont Panic</h2>



<p>Vegas will be disappointed they could not finish off the sweep, but they just have to win one of the next three games to advance to the Stanley Cup. With two games on home ice the Golden Knights will fancy their chances of getting the job done.</p>



<p>In the game four defeat, William Karlsson and Jonathan Marchessault both got on the scoresheet. Four different Golden Knights recorded an assist on the night.</p>

<p>The Houston Cougars head to Rice Stadium in Houston, Texas, this Saturday night to take on the Rice Owls, as Week 2 of the 2021 college football season continues with plenty of interesting markets to choose from.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The Cougars meet the Owls for the first time since 2018. Houston is 5-0 straight up and 4-1 ATS in its last five encounters with Rice, and the Cougars opened as 8-point favorites for Saturday’s clash. The Owls are listed as +265 moneyline home dogs, while the totals sit at 52.5 points on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betdsi/">BetDSI Sportsbook</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>Houston started the new season with a heavy loss at home</strong></h2>



<p>The Houston Cougars are coming off a 38-21 defeat to the Texas Tech Red Raiders in Week 1. They were listed as slight 2.5-point home favorites, but the Cougars disappointed in the opener, blowing a 14-point lead in the second half. Houston allowed 31 unanswered points and finished the game with just 251 total yards.</p>



<p>"We didn't do a very good job in the second half from an offensive perspective," Houston coach Dana Holgorsen <a href="https://www.espn.com/college-football/recap?gameId=401287886">said</a>. "That's one of the worst halves I've ever been a part of. I admit that; I own that, and we'll work hard on trying to fix that."</p>



<p>Junior QB Clayton Tune tossed for 174 yards, a couple of touchdowns, and a whopping four interceptions in Week 1. Last year, he had 2048 yards, 15 touchdowns, and ten interceptions in eight appearances. The Cougars went 3-4 in 2020, scoring 32.3 points per game (38<sup>th</sup> in the country) and yielding 32.6 in a return (89<sup>th</sup>).</p>



<h2><strong>Rice couldn’t cope with Arkansas down the stretch&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<p>The Rice Owls started the 2021 college football season with a 38-17 defeat at the Arkansas Razorbacks. As well as their next rivals, the Owls surrendered 31 unanswered points in the second half, but they played as massive 20-point road underdogs.</p>



<p>The Owls’ run defense struggled mightily in Week 1, giving up 5.6 yards per rush and 245 in total. Last year, they were yielding 140.8 rushing yards per game to finish 40<sup>th</sup> in the country. Rice went 2-3 in the abbreviated 2020 season, tallying 23.4 points per contest (99<sup>th</sup> in the nation) and surrendering 18.8 in a return (16<sup>th</sup>).</p>



<p>Sophomore QB Wiley Green started under center last Saturday and completed just 12 of his 25 passing attempts for 152 yards, a touchdown, and three interceptions. Freshman Luke McCaffrey also got some snaps and went 5-for-10 for 75 yards.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Houston:</strong></p>



<ul><li>1-5 ATS in the last six games overall&nbsp;</li><li>4-11 ATS in the last 15 road games as favorites</li></ul>



<p><strong>Rice:</strong></p>



<ul><li>5-0 ATS in the last five home games against Houston</li><li>6-1-1 ATS in the last eight games played in Week 2</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-houston-cougars-vs-rice-owls-pick"><strong>Houston Cougars vs. Rice Owls Pick</strong></h2>



<p>The Owls are winless in ten consecutive games played in September, going 4-5-1 ATS in the process. The Cougars are a better team on paper and should come out on top, but with eight points on the table, I’m backing the hosts to cover.</p>



<p>Both teams have some serious problems on the offensive side of the ball. The Owls desperately need more from their passing game, but their defense should keep the team close. The Cougars ran for just 77 yards in Week 1, while their passing game could easily struggle once more against the Owls’ solid secondary.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Rice Owls +8.0 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>I’m expecting both teams to struggle offensively, so betting on the under 52.5 points seems like a way to go. Clayton Tune and Wiley Green combined for seven interceptions in Week 1, so both teams will look to put some pressure on these two signal-callers.</p>



<p>After allowing 38 points to Arkansas on the road, the Owls should improve at home, as they lean on their defense. The under is 5-2 in Rice’s last seven outings as a dog, and it is 5-1 in Houston’s previous six games overall. Also, four of the last six encounters between the Cougars and Owls went in the under.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go under 52.5 points at -110</strong></p>
