Busch grabs Nationwide pole at Dover

Autoracing Betting Lines

09/26/2009 - Dover, DE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Busch will start on the pole for Saturday's Dover 200 Nationwide Series race after topping the speed charts in qualifying at Dover International Speedway.

Busch, the current points leader, turned a blazing lap around the one-mile track at 154.110 m.p.h. (23.360 seconds) in his No.18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota for his third pole of the season and the 18th of his Nationwide career. He started on the pole and won the fall race here one year ago.

"The [car] has been good this weekend, and we just have to make sure we keep it that way throughout this race," Busch said. "We've got 200 laps, and anything can happen. We've seen it here before, especially with us this year. It seems like our late restarts are our Achilles' heal."

In May, Busch appeared to be on his way to another victory at Dover, but a late-race tangle with his JGR teammate Joey Logano cost him the win. Brad Keselowski went to Victory Lane, while Busch ended up with a 17th-place finish after cutting a tire during the incident.

Busch qualified more than two miles per hour faster than his closest competitor, Carl Edwards, who will start on the outside pole. Busch holds a 201-point lead over Edwards.

Mike Bliss qualified third, followed by Sprint Cup Series regulars Denny Hamlin and Scott Speed.

Ryan Newman, Steve Wallace, John Wes Townley, Dennis Setzer and Reed Sorenson completed the top-10.

J.C. Stout was the only driver who failed to qualify.

Today's 200-mile is scheduled to begin around 3:30 p.m. (et).

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
