My current issue, that I keep falling back to, is the install *INSISTS* that it has to add a - after version.
You're missing the spec file header that includes lots of meta information. The dash is to separate the version from the package release string. You should have a Release: header to fill that in.
I understood that... but I don't *want* a release number. Unless you're suggesting that I *must* do something like change my package name and directory to 1.27-0.

install -m 744 -d %{buildroot}/%{name}-%{version}
No need to set the mode here. Do that in the %files section with the defattrs tag.
%files %{buildroot}/%{name}
Use the final absolute install path in %files. Don't include the buildroot. So just /opt/%{name}.
What I see from the rpmbuild is
- cd /usr//local//src//rpmbuild/BUILD
Don't build as root. I create a special user to build packages from. Install the rpmdevtools package and run rpmdev-setuptree as your build user.
