Autoracing Betting Lines

10/21/2011 - Talladega, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - James Buescher earned his second career Camping World Truck Series pole by winning Friday's qualifying for the Coca- Cola 250 at Talladega Superspeedway.

Buescher, who is presently third in points, turned a lap at 177.676 mph around the 2.66-mile superspeedway. His first pole came in June at Texas. Buescher has yet to win a race in the series.

Nelson Piquet Jr.'s lap at 176.845 mph secured him the outside pole. Austin Dillon, the current points leader, qualified third and Ricky Carmichael took the fourth spot.

Kevin Harvick Inc. teammates Ron Hornaday Jr. and Mike Wallace will start fifth and sixth, respectively. Hornaday has won the last two truck races. Wallace is driving KHI's No.33 truck in Saturday's race.

Joey Coulter, Johanna Long, Parker Kligerman and Cole Whitt completed the top-10.

Kyle Busch, who is the only Sprint Cup Series regular competing in this event, qualified 17th. Busch has won the truck race at Talladega the past two years.

Dillon holds a just a five-point advantage over Johnny Sauter, who will start 20th. Buescher is seven points out of the lead.

Jennifer Jo Cobb, Norm Benning, Mike Harmon and Clay Greenfield failed to qualify.

The 250-mile race at Talladega is scheduled to start just after 4:00 p.m. (et).

Football Betting Lines

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
