Service Plays Sunday 9/5/10

[Can'tPickaWinner2]

The Rx.com Mod Team has created this Service Play sub-forum in order to supply an area for Rx Service Play Posters to expand upon their posting topics without creating a logjam in the main forum where the three principle threads are maintained..

Posters can track services here if they care to but we will need any trackers to do so in an accurate and civil manner. We did not create this area for posters to ridicule or bash any services..

You can also discuss who is hot and who is not. The general state of the pay for plays industry and any other subject or topic related to service plays.

You can also create individual threads about specific services and discuss them freely but civilly. Again bashing and abusive treatment of any services will not be tolerated.

Please remember, this forum is not here for regular posters who cap their own games to post ther daily plays. Please use our individual sport forums to post your plays. Professional cappers (those that sell plays) must remain in the Site Promotion Forum.

The Rx.com will not tolerate posters that post false records of any services they track. Please be truthful if you decide to track a particular service.

Lastly The Rx Moderators are appealing to you our everyday posters to report any promotional threads or posts that are made by services or individual touts. No links or contact information to an individual service will be allowed. Just the name of the service. Please report any threads or posts that are promotional attempts by services and touts to use this forum to promote themselves..

Posters can easily report a promotional post by using the triangular Report-a-Post Icon at the bottom left of all post boxes. The poster name of any poster who reports a post that is out of line will be kept strictly confidential.

I will leave this thread open for a month to take questions and do my best to answer them. I will check in daily but am off on Wednesday and Thursday.

I hope this additional Service Play Forum will satisfy those posters that would like to widen the scope of topics relating to service plays and the industry in general to have their own threads. Mods will be liberal as possible regarding topics but this forum was specifically created to allow you more freedom to express your ideas regarding service plays and related subject matter. No off topic threads will be allowed.

Thank you, wilheim

Evan Altemus

4 Units Tulsa -8.5

Analysis: Tulsa should have a much more potent offense this season, returning four starters on the offensive line, but more importantly their starting quarterback G.J. Kinne. Overall the Golden Hurricane return nine out of eleven starters on offense as well. Homefield hasn’t really mattered in this series either, with the road team covering the last three times these teams have played. This game should be a big statement game for the Tulsa program overall. They had a very disappointing season last year, going 5-7, including a six game losing streak, before ending the year with an overtime win over Memphis. However, that stretch included games against the best conference teams one after another when they weren’t’ playing well. However, the defense returns three out of four starters on the defensive line, so both the offense and defense looks more stable than last year. Meanwhile, this season looks to be a down year for East Carolina. They hired Ruffin McNeil to replace Skip Holtz as the head coach, but McNeil has no head coaching experience and his defense wasn’t particularly dominant at Texas Tech. He only returns six starters overall and is also trying to install a Texas Tech style spread offense. The Golden Hurricane were embarrassed by the Pirates last year at home, losing 44-17, so there is added motivation for them in this game to avenge the blowout loss. East Carolina’s team has hardly any returning starters, a new coach with a new offensive and defensive scheme, and facing a team returning several starters with a big revenge factor. The Pirates don’t have a dominant home field advantage, so I think Tulsa won’t be affected by playing on the road in this game, especially with it being the first game of the year. Look for Tulsa to avenge last year’s disappointing season with a big road win here.

THE GOLDSHEET

Tulsa 38 - EAST CAROLINA 26—The pointspread on this game (Tulsa -81⁄2 at TGS press time) is being skewed by two prevailing opinions. One, that two- time defending Conference USA champ East Carolina will be waaaaaaay down in 2010 after losing not only highly-regarded head coach Skip Holtz, but also the most starters in the nation. And second, that the Golden Hurricane offense figures to rebound following a sub-par 2009 campaign in which the previously- prolific attack’s production plummeted by 18 ppg and 160 ypg (!) from prior season. We concur on both counts, although greatly inflated price somewhat dampens our resolve for backing favored Tulsa in this C-USA lidlifter.

TEXAS TECH 40 - Smu 21—SMU wasn’t within 30 points of TT in three meetings between 2006-08. The teams did not play LY, when Mustang coach June Jones (now in his third season) engineered the season’s biggest turnaround from 1-11 in 2008 to ‘09’s 8-5. Still, none of those victories was registered against a foe in the class of the Red Raiders, who are well familiar with dealing with run-and-shoot attacks. New coach Tommy Tuberville has vowed to improve not only TT’s defense, but also to run with more authority. Mustang soph QB Kyle Padron, despite his 460 YP in LY’s Hawaii Bowl “walkover” vs. bewildered Nevada, has made only six starts and is accompanied by a still-youthful group of skill players.

NELLY'S GREENSHEET

Tulsa (-9) EAST CAROLINA (60 1⁄2) 1:00 PM
After back-to-back Conference USA titles the fall from grace for the Pirates could be severe in this rebuilding season. Coach Skip Holtz has departed and only eight projected starters are returning players including only two on defense. Last year’s defense was not as strong as in 2008 but the Pirates should take an even bigger step back this season. The tests will come early in a key conference match-up to open the season. Despite out- gaining and out-scoring foes last season Tulsa went 5-7. The Golden Hurricane appears poised for a big bounce back season with nearly the entire offense back in action. QB G.J. Kinne has a strong season last year in the air and on the ground and after a 44-17 loss to ECU last season this will be a key game for Tulsa. Tulsa lost four close games last season and even on the road this should be a good match-up for an explosive offense. East Carolina has been a dangerous underdog but those trends may keep this line from being higher than it is. TULSA BY 11

TEXAS TECH (-13 1⁄2) Smu (60) 2:30 PM
There is plenty of experience back for the Red Raiders but the messy departure of Coach Leach will be a cloud over this team. Tommy Tuberville is a fine replacement but the changes in the offense will make this an interesting team to watch. Three QBs now have starting experience for this team and the receiving threats are high quality, however the O-line is very inexperienced. With questions on the line the tempo is going to be fast so the Red Raiders should still be counted on to be a high scoring team. SMU will also be putting points on the board in this match-up. QB Kyle Padron played well as a freshman last season and three receivers that had 40 receptions last season are back. After an 8-5 season the Mustangs could even take another step forward with a favorable schedule but a weak secondary could be a serious problem against this offense. Texas Tech should also be the superior running team in this match-up as SMU rushed for only 110 yards per game in 2009. These teams did not meet last season but Tech dominated the previous three years and while SMU is a C-USA sleeper this looks like a difficult opener. TEXAS TECH BY 17

Canadian Bacon: Week 10 Analysis and predictions

Sunday

Winnipeg Blue Bombers at Saskatchewan Roughriders (-9.5, 58)

Let’s face it, the Blue Bombers are a much better team than their 2-6 record may suggest. They’ve lost some close games and injuries to Buck Pierce (knee) and Steven Jyles (ribs) didn’t help Paul La Police’s squad.

The problem for Winnipeg is that the Riders are also better than their 5-3 record indicates. Last week, Darian Durant was erratic in a 17-14 loss to the Eskimos - a game where he was picked off three times. Durant has thrown more interceptions than touchdown passes (12 to 11) this season.

Saskatchewan offensive coordinator Doug Berry will face the Bombers for the first time since he was dismissed two years ago. He admitted this week that he probably has been too conservative in his play calling. He will have all the reasons in the world to go for more spectacular plays against Winnipeg this week.

Pick: Saskatchewan

Streaking and Slumping Pitchers

Streaking

Mike Minor (3-0, 3.91 ERA), Atlanta

Mike Minor has had a dream start to his life in the big leagues. The rookie is 3-0 in his first four starts and is coming off a 9-2 win over the New York Mets in his last outing. The lefty scattered seven hits over five innings of work while striking out four and walking two.

Felix Hernandez (10-10, 2.38 ERA) Seattle

Felix Hernandez must have a tough time keeping himself from wondering what life would be like if he wasn’t playing for the Seattle Mariners at this point. He has allowed just a single run over his last five outings, but is only 3-1 over that stretch thanks to Seattle’s terrible run support. During that time he has 48 strikeouts over 37 innings.

Hernandez took a no-decision against the Los Angeles Angels the last time he took the hill, going seven scoreless innings while striking out eight.


Slumping

Vin Mazzaro (6-7, 4.05 ERA), Oakland

The good news for Vin Mazzaro is that it can’t get much worse than his last start. He gave up three homers and seven earned runs against the New York Yankees in a 9-3 loss the last time he took the hill. Mazzaro is now winless in his last seven outings, with his last win coming on July 29 at home against the
Texas Rangers.

Rodrigo Lopez (5-12, 5.24 ERA) Arizona

Lopez has suffered three tough starts over his last four outings and hasn’t won a game since July 8 against the Florida Marlins. He hasn’t made it though the fifth inning in his last two, allowing five runs apiece in those outings.
