Busch not contending for second straight Nationwide title

Autoracing Betting Lines

05/14/2010 - Dover, DE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Busch confirmed on Friday at Dover International Speedway that he will not run a full season in the Nationwide Series this year.

Busch, a Sprint Cup Series regular, won the Nationwide championship in dominating fashion in 2009. He scored nine victories and finished 210 points ahead of runner-up Carl Edwards for his first title in one of NASCAR's three national touring series.

Joe Gibbs plans to have Busch, Denny Hamlin and Joey Logano focus more on their Sprint Cup duties in hopes of all three drivers qualifying for the championship chase later this year.

"I think I've been shot down on a full-time Nationwide, so that's done," Busch said. "Brad Coleman will be racing in the car in the races that I am not, and I believe we all know that Matt DiBenedetto will be racing...in the 20 car that Logano or Hamlin aren't."

The next stand-alone race for Nationwide is June 5 at Nashville. Sprint Cup will be at Pocono that weekend.

Busch, with three Nationwide victories so far this year, is currently 55 points behind leader and fellow Sprint Cup competitor Brad Keselowski, who is scheduled to run a full-time in this series this season.

Sprint Cup drivers Carl Edwards and Paul Menard are also attempting a full- time run in Nationwide. Kevin Harvick has yet to decide his status in the series for the remainder of the year.

Busch is competing in all three of NASCAR's races at Dover this weekend. He is in his first year as driver and owner of his Camping World Truck Series team.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy. The game kicks off at 6:00pm ET on NBC with announcers Al Michaels and John Madden covering the on-field action. Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.

MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:

Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)

Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line)
