Bowyer returns home to Kansas after winning at Dover

Autoracing Betting Lines

09/29/2009 - Kansas City, KS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Series: NASCAR Nationwide. Date: Saturday, October 3. Race: Kansas Lottery 300. Site: Kansas Speedway. Track: 1.5-mile oval. Start Time: 3:49 p.m. (et). Laps: 200. Miles: 300. Last year's winner: Denny Hamlin. Television: ESPN 2. Radio: Motor Racing Network (MRN)/SIRIUS XM Satellite.

Clint Bowyer comes home to Kansas after winning last Saturday's Dover 200. Bowyer, the 2008 Nationwide Series champion, picked up his second victory in just nine starts this season. He also won in July at Daytona.

Growing up in nearby Emporia, KS, Bowyer looks forward to his annual trip home.

"That's your hometown, and everybody wants a little piece of you whether it be family, friends or sponsors that have helped me through the years," Bowyer said. "It's a fun and exciting weekend. It's a long weekend, too. When the weekend is over, I'm worn out, but I've always had a good time."

Bowyer, running a limited Nationwide schedule for Richard Childress Racing in 2009, has yet to win at Kansas, but has finished second, fourth and fifth in his last three races there.

Two drivers have won a NASCAR national touring race at their home tracks so far this year, with Brad Keselowski taking the checkered flag for the Nationwide event at Michigan and Denny Hamlin driving into Victory Lane for the Sprint Cup race at Richmond.

Bowyer has never recorded consecutive wins in Nationwide competition.

Kyle Busch enters Kansas with a 211-point lead over Carl Edwards. Busch had the dominant car for the first half of the 200-lap race at Dover, but Bowyer came on strong shortly after the midway point and took over from there. Bowyer held off Mike Bliss and Brad Keselowski in a seven-lap shootout to the finish.

Busch finished fourth, while Edwards came in fifth. Busch became the second driver in NASCAR's second-tier series to lead more than 2,000 laps for the year. Sam Ard led a total of 2,099 laps during his 28-race championship season in 1984.

Last year, Denny Hamlin became the eighth different winner in as many Nationwide races at Kansas. Hamlin is not competing in Saturday's 300-mile event.

Fifty-two teams are on the preliminary entry list for the Kansas Lottery 300, including three former Kansas winners -- Joe Nemechek (2004), Kevin Harvick (2006) and Busch (2007).

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
