Keselowski takes Nationwide pole at New Hampshire

Autoracing Betting Lines

06/26/2010 - Loudon, NH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brad Keselowski will start on the pole for Saturday's New England 200 Nationwide Series race after topping Carl Edwards in qualifying at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Keselowski, who currently holds a 237-point lead over Edwards, turned a lap of 129.657 m.p.h. around the flat 1.058-mile oval for his third pole of the season and the sixth of his Nationwide career.

"This is a great start, but we still have a long way to go, even just today," Keselowski said. "This is a tough race. Having a good car like we have today hopefully should get us to that next level."

Keselowski will attempt to become the 24th different winner in as many Nationwide races at New Hampshire.

Edwards qualified 0.03 seconds behind Keselowski to capture the outside pole.

Kevin Harvick took the third spot, while Kyle Busch, the defending race winner, and Justin Allgaier rounded out the top-five. Busch is making his first Nationwide start since four weeks ago at Charlotte, where he picked up his series-leading fifth win of the season.

Steve Wallace qualified sixth, followed by Joey Logano, Austin Dillon, Justin Lofton and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Danica Patrick struggled in Friday's practice sessions at New Hampshire, but improved with a 25th-place qualifying effort. Patrick will make her fourth Nationwide start, but her first since February 27 at Las Vegas.

"Just considering how it felt, I guess I should be a little bit happier with it," she said. "To go a little bit quicker than yesterday, I guess is a good thing. It's always nice when your quickest lap of the weekend is in qualifying."

Charles Lewandoski and Chris Lawson failed to qualify.

The 200-lap race at New Hampshire is scheduled to start around 3:30 p.m.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
