Sadler expects to depart RPM at season's end

07/10/2010 - Joliet, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Elliott Sadler said he does not plan to return to Richard Petty Motorsports for the 2011 Sprint Cup Series season.

Sadler spoke with the media on Friday at Chicagoland Speedway. The 35-year-old driver said that he doesn't fit in the racing organization's future plans.

"At this moment, I do not expect at all to be back with this organization," he said. "I'm okay with that, because I'm a huge fan of Richard Petty's. He deserves to be a part of this sport for a long time. He brings a lot to this sport as far as the fans are concerned."

Sadler did not indicate what his plans are for the future, but said he recently has spoken with some teams.

"I feel really good in the area my career is going next year," he said. "I've had a lot of good talks with a couple of different car owners during the last two months. We'll see where it takes us. I should know something here in the next month or month and a half on what my future will be for next year."

Prior to the start of the 2009 season, Sadler signed a contract extension with RPM to remain as driver of the No.19 car through the remainder of this year.

He has three career Cup victories, but has not won since September 2004 when he drove for Robert Yates Racing. He has finished no better than 22nd in points since 2005.

Currently 28th in the standings, Sadler's best finish after 18 races this season is 17th, which came last month at Sonoma, CA. He will start 16th in Saturday's 400 mile race at Chicagoland.

Earlier this week, RPM named Todd Parrott as the new crew chief for Sadler's team. Parrott previously served as his crew chief at Yates from 2003-05. He led Sadler to a ninth-place finish in the inaugural championship Chase in '04.

MySportsbook.com: New College Football Clock Rules Examined

Coaches and bettors alike are desperate to make sense of the new time-keeping rules on the NCAA gridiron. One of the big stories to come out of the Ohio State-Texas clash last weekend was Texas coach Mack Brown's criticism of the NCAA's new clock rules that are intended to shorten the duration of college football games, therefore affecting college football betting.

"They scored with six minutes left and the game was over before we had a chance to do anything," Brown told ESPN.com. "I really hope whoever made these changes will go back and look them over."

Sure, it might be sour grapes; the Buckeyes thoroughly trounced the defending national champion Longhorns 24-7. However, Brown isn't alone in giving the changes their due thought. Bettors are also wondering about them, albeit for a completely different reason. Most experts agree that the changes will result in games being shortened by anywhere from 10 to 20 plays. The obvious consequence is lower scores, with more time rolling off the clock during changes of possession. (The Ohio State-Texas game flew well under the total of 52.)

According to research at the online sportsbook MySportsbook.com, more than 18 plays a game disappeared last weekend into thin air. That's a 10-percent reduction. In 2005, a typical game had 168.58 plays. For 2007 already, it's down to 150.26.

As a result, teams combined to gain an average of about 100 fewer yards a game last weekend versus the 2005 openers. Scoring was also down by about 4.5 points (attention Las Vegas sports lines).

Of course, oddsmakers were able to adjust to the changes before the season started. Proof of that came as the over went a balanced 8-9 at My Sportsbook on Saturday.

Other angles to consider:A shorter game should theoretically result in shorter lines. Whereas Team A might have been a 14-point favorite in a 168-play game (last year), if there are 10 percent less snaps in 2007, the line should also be reduced by 10 percent (to 13 or 12.5). Of course, this is an over-simplification of the matter, but something to keep in mind.
Less possessions means a better chance the game will be decided by three or seven points. For example, what might have been a 20-10 final score in 2005 may end at

17-10 in 2007. Granted, a 24-17 game last year might end at 21-17 these days, but the former - a three- or seven-point advantage being preserved as opposed to created - is the most likely scenario.

*UPDATE* - Sept. 25, 2007

New Clock Rules Boon for online bookmakers

By adjusting the time-keeping rules to shorten the duration of college football games, the NCAA hoped to make its product more enjoyable for the fans. While the NCAA's success in this regard is still up for debate, bookmakers couldn't be happier with the results.

"We are seeing a massive jump in college football betting," noted the MySportsbook.com management team. "With all the early Saturday games (12 a.m. ET) ending before the second wave begins (3:30 p.m. ET) - something that didn't always happen before the changes - bettors are now able to re-invest their winnings from the morning session in the afternoon games."

While not all bettors will choose to roll over their winnings, it doesn't take much for an impact to be seen on the bottom line. "Not all of the millions of dollars in morning payouts get re-bet. In fact, it's probably only 10 to 20 percent," noted the sportsbook management team. "Still, the increased football betting lines window will create a ton of growth for us over the course of the season."
