Tulsa-UTEP In-game thread: Can the Miners ride the Golden Hurricane?

**Cougar Bait** · 10-21-09, 06:29 PM

No...I expect to see a bunch of Miners drowning by the 3rd quarter. Their secondary is garbage. And...what is Tulsa's bread and butter? Slinging the rock. Tulsa is my play. Got it at -7.

**HoldEmHook!!** · 10-21-09, 06:29 PM

my guy has it at 10 and 60

**aekdb1130** · 10-21-09, 06:41 PM

Thank you. Idiots want to set up In-Game threads like they are hosting a BBQ.

Tulsa -7
--- This is a Big Play for me fellas. Tulsa will roll. UTEP caught Houston in a huge letdown spot, after they beat TX Tech. Houston's coaching staff came from TX Tech, and they wanted that one bad. UTEP has lost at home, to a team with less offensive advantages, Buffalo. UTEP did us a great favor beating Houston in the letdown spot, b/c now the public will think UTEP has some home field advantage. NOPE.

Tulsa has gotten a "Moral Victory", by staying close with Boise State, a top 5 team. They are an offensive powerhouse. Don't pile on them for not covering against Rice on the road. They had Boise State coming up next, and were not as focused as I think they will be for the rest of the season. They need to win out for a bowl game.

Like most schools who are in states that border TX, much of Tulsa's, roster are TX natives. They will play hard and roll.

Last years score, 77-35, Tulsa.

Tulsa/UTEP UNDER 58

Tulsa has received and avg O/U of 61 in its 6 games this season. All have gone UNDER.
--- Sharp Rule 548: Never bet against streaks of 3 or more.

UTEP... well let me say this.. They scored a whopping 7 pts against Kansas while @ home. Kansas has allowed an avg of 29pts since that time, this all against mediocre comp. UTEP has been out-rushed in every game this season, save the Houston debacle. UTEP allows teams to sustain long time consuming drives.

Also for those who like to fade the Public, I'm seeing 70%+ on the OVER at Pregame.com

________________________________________ _______________________________

Wait a minute... are you saying Houston has some Shut-Down D? Houston off beating TX Tech, in a letdown spot, on the road, against a foe who has been garbage for some time now(Overlooking). That's some situational perspective for you, now here is the truth. Houston's run D doesn't exist. It is a hologram. An undersized hologram at that.

Houston is the only team that UTEP has out-rushed this season. Every team Houston has faced has out-rushed them. So UTEP did nothing spectacular. Their coach attacked Houston's glaring flaw. Mike Price, UTEP's coach, is a very good coach to me. Although he will be at a speed, talent, and size disadvantage this game. So his scheme will be irrelevant. No matter how he decides to attack Tulsa.

I just gave you situational, and the fact based perspective. "ARE NOT YOU ENTERTAINED!"

**Ralphie1412** · 10-21-09, 07:08 PM

thats fine, only way UTEP can win is if they can run the ball, and so far its looking like they wont be able to.
