Almirola holds off Bodine and Busch for Michigan win

Autoracing Betting Lines

06/12/2010 - Brooklyn, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Aric Almirola captured his second victory in the Camping World Truck Series by taking Saturday's VFW 200 at Michigan International Speedway.

Almirola took the lead for the first time with seven laps to go when he pulled ahead of Todd Bodine and Kyle Busch after they ran three-wide for the top spot. He held off several challenges from Bodine in the final laps before beating him at the finish by 0.111 seconds.

"Our [truck] was not as good as we wanted it to be in the beginning of the race, but [crew chief] Richie Wauters and the guys on our team did a really good job adjusting the truck all day long," Almirola said.

Almirola claimed his first victory in the series last month at Dover. He is driving the No.51 Toyota for Billy Ballew Motorsports full-time this year after he previously shared driving duties with Busch in that truck.

"What an awesome Billy Ballew Motorsports team; It's their first win at Michigan, so I finally did something Kyle didn't do," Almirola added.

Bodine led the most laps with 33, en route to his second place finish, while Busch ended up third in his No.18 Toyota. Busch is in his first year as driver and owner in the series.

"I suck at Michigan," Busch said. "Aric Almirola did it in the 51 [truck]. I've driven it for five years, and couldn't get it."

Four-time and defending series champion Ron Hornaday Jr. took the fourth spot. Austin Dillon, the pole sitter, overcame a pit-road penalty late in the race to settle for a fifth-place finish. Dillon left his stall with the gas can still attached to his car.

Timothy Peters, Jason White, David Starr, Elliott Sadler and Nelson Piquet Jr. completed the top-10.

With the win, Almirola moved to within 55 points of leader Bodine, who won last week at Texas.

After 38 of 100 laps were completed, NASCAR halted the race when a shower moved over the two-mile oval. It was delayed for 40 minutes before racing resumed.

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. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
