Autoracing Betting Lines

06/27/2010 - Loudon, NH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The IZOD IndyCar Series will return to New Hampshire Motor Speedway in July 2011, Indy Racing League and NHMS track officials announced on Sunday.

IRL chief executive officer Randy Bernard, Speedway Motorsports Inc. chairman and CEO Bruton Smith and NHMS general manager Jerry Gappens, as well as 2009 IndyCar champion Dario Franchitti, were among those present for the formal announcement, which was made hours before the start of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at the flat 1.058-mile oval.

"We're pleased to restore an Indy car short oval to the schedule to further increase our diversity of venues," Bernard said. ""As evident last weekend in Iowa, our cars produce tremendous racing on short ovals."

IndyCar competed at New Hampshire from 1996-98. Two-time NASCAR Cup champion Tony Stewart won the last IndyCar event here in '98.

"It will be a great track for us, similar to Milwaukee, with those long straights and those tight corners," Franchitti said. "I'm looking forward to racing here."

Last month, IRL officials reveal the City of Baltimore will host an IndyCar race for the first time on a temporary street circuit in the city's downtown area in August 2011.

IndyCar is off this weekend before they head to the Watkins Glen, NY road course on July 4.

On Saturday, IndyCar star Danica Patrick competed in the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at New Hampshire, finishing 30th.

NFL Football Sports Betting

Two playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.

New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.

His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.

HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.

The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.

RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.

First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.

The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.

These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.

New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
