Autoracing Betting Lines

07/04/2010 - Daytona Beach, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kevin Harvick won his second consecutive restrictor-plate race by taking Saturday's Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway.

Harvick, the current points leader, survived a rash of late-race accidents, including the "big one" that involved more than a dozen drivers with 13 laps remaining.

Another multi-car pileup triggered by Sam Hornish Jr. in the final laps set up a green-white-checkered finish. Clint Bowyer grabbed the lead from Jeff Gordon just before the final caution.

After the restart, Harvick moved underneath his Richard Childress Racing teammate Bowyer and took the lead. Harvick then held off Kasey Kahne and Gordon to claim his second win of the season. His first victory this year came at Talladega.

Kahne finished second, and Gordon took the third spot. Dale Earnhardt Jr., who won Friday's Nationwide Series race at Daytona, and Jeff Burton rounded out the top-five.

Harvick increased his lead to 212 points over Gordon. Earnhardt Jr. moved up to 11th in points, while Mark Martin dropped to 13th after being involved in the major crash. Eight races remain before the championship Chase begins in September at New Hampshire.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl

NFL Super Bowl Betting

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.

Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.

The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
