OK, so I called Scooters, and asked how far ahead of game time we'd need to be there, for a group of 10 to get table(s), and the answer was "4 hours". Our logistics being what they are, 10 people, staying center strip, and the diversity of the group (82 year old grandma to 21 year old grandson), the "ideal" would be someplace easy to get to from center strip, Caesar's Palace area, and where we only need to arrive an hour before the game. If it was just me and my GF, then Scooter's, no question. Hell, if we could get to Scooters 2 hours before game time and have a place for 10 of us, we'd do that.
The only other suggestion so far has been Tap in the MGM; ideally, I'd like to have 3 good options to choose from.
So I suppose I should refine my query to, "Great places to watch the game, where 10 people can arrive an hour before the game and get a table, where the food is good and reasonably priced, and that is easy enough to get to from Center Strip." (We have rental cars and can drive to a place)
