Looking for a weekend with a lot of good NFL games and some good college ones, too, if it's possible.  

We'll play some table games, too, but looking to spend the majority of the weekend (and maybe Monday night, too) on football, so I'm looking for a weekend with interesting games to bet.

I'll be at all Bengals home games (hopefully) , so it would need to be during an away week.

For the NFL, I'm thinking that maybe week 8 would be a good time to go because the Bengals play in Pittsburgh at 1 (hell of a game to bet on in Vegas, but then it's also great around here with die-hard Bengals fans), the Seahawks play in Dallas at 4:15, and then Green Bay plays in Denver at 8:30, so that would be at least three games going on most of the day that would be awesome to watch and bet on.

The Monday Night Football Game, if I stayed that long, is the Colts at the Panthers, which could be a good game to watch.  

Other notable games are the Niners at the Rams, Chargers at the Ravens, Giants at Saints, and even the Vikings at Rams should be a good game, but I'll be so into the Bengals-Steelers game that I probably won't be paying too much attention to the other games.

As far as college games go, Ohio State has the weekend off, which is a bummer, but Rutgers plays at Wisconsin, Ole Miss plays at Auburn (should be a hell of a game), Tennessee at Kentucky, Florida verse Georgia, and a few other good ones, but I'm sure we could even spend Saturday on table games.

Does that weekend look best?  Anybody have any other weekends of games that look good?

Not going week by week matchups, but I would say the earlier the better.  The lines are often WAY off, especially in college football.  I always liked to go with huge underdogs that retained a good number of starters from the previous season....even on the road.  As far as early NFL matchups go, the division games are often much closer than Vegas thinks they will be...say a game like Vikes and Packers:  Pack is clearly better, but Minnesota might have stayed fairly healthy through camp and early in the year so their lack of depth hasn't been exposed.  Pack might be an 8 point fav and it could be a FG game.
