The Yellawood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway is Sunday’s NASCAR race and even though it is the second race in the Round of 12 in the playoffs, it sure feels like the midweek announcements about the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series schedule are taking center stage.

NASCAR is adding more road courses and will even run a dirt track race at Bristol next year in hopes of spicing up the schedule and drumming up more interest. We’ll talk more about that going into next season, but these remaining races in the Round of 12 are the right types of tracks for some interest.

“The Big One” is always in play at Talladega, as is the case on the Daytona International Speedway track. The Roval at Charlotte will be the deciding race for who advances to the Round of 8 and whose championship dreams are finished.

Let’s take a look at the Yellawood 500 with odds from <a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie"><strong>MyBookie Sportsbook</strong></a>:

Generally speaking, the favorite in a NASCAR race is around +350 or +400, but not here at ‘Dega. The tapered spacer has replaced the restrictor plate, but the concept is the same at the Superspeedway in Alabama. The cars are neutered in the name of safety and that levels the playing field quite a bit to create a lot of close racing. Some people call it “rubbing”, which, that just sounds a little too sensual.

In any event, Brad Keselowski, Chase Elliott, and Denny Hamlin are the co-favorites at +900. Ryan Blaney and Joey Logano are +1000. As we’ll discuss, wins are pretty spread out at Talladega, which should come as no surprise. Keselowski has had the best success here with five wins in his 23 starts.
<h3><strong><u>Playoff Picture</u></strong></h3>
Kurt Busch won on his home track for the first time ever and that was really bad news for those at the bottom of the standings. Busch was likely to be among the four drivers cut from the playoff chase after this round of races, but he won and gets a free pass to the next round.

Now Kyle Busch, Clint Bowyer, Aric Almirola, and Austin Dillon are firmly on the chopping block. Kyle Busch is nine points behind Alex Bowman, who has shown better speed over these last few playoff races. Kyle is only 10 points behind Chase Elliott, so this is a big race for him, too. He was 22nd last week, but did win the second stage for his second stage win in as many races.

Bowyer, Almirola, and Dillon are win or bust in all likelihood over the next two races.

Kevin Harvick and Denny Hamlin are over 40 points clear from Keselowski in third. Busch’s win last week created a lot more drama than we had going into Las Vegas, so we’ll see if it happens again this week.
<h3><strong><u>Talladega</u></strong></h3>
Here’s to turning up, slowing down, and cars that go real fast. The cars do, in fact, go really fast at Talladega. The spring race was actually the slowest of the last three years at 146.933 mph, but it required extra laps and there were quite a few cautions and a poor weather forecast. This race last year, which was won by Ryan Blaney, was also slowed by rain and pushed back to the next day.

If everything goes according to plan, we’ll see 188 laps here around the 2.66-mile asphalt oval. Things rarely go to plan at Talladega, though.
<h3><strong><u>Talladega</u></strong><strong><u> Tallies</u></strong></h3>
Brad Keselowski leads all active drivers with five wins. Joey Logano has three. Jimmie Johnson, Ryan Blaney, and Clint Bowyer have two. Bowyer could use one this week.

Eight active drivers have one win here. Aric Almirola, Matt Kenseth, Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin, Chase Elliott, who only has nine career starts at Talladega, David Ragan, Kyle Busch, and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. are the ones that have found the winner’s circle once in Lincoln. Nobody has a great average finish here because of the number of wrecks.

Harvick has 28 lead lap finishes out of 39 races. Kyle Busch has 26 in 39. Ryan Newman has 25 in 37. Johnson has 24 in 37. Hamlin has the best rate at 20/29 among the drivers with a lot of starts here. Almirola as actually been on the lead lap 17 times in 21 tries. In some respects, Talladega is just a war of attrition and you don’t want to get caught up in the damage.
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://bangthebook.com/s/mybookie"><span class="td_btn td_btn_lg td_3D_btn" style="color: #ffffff; background-color: #000000;">BET ON THE YELLAWOOD 500 WITH A 100% DEPOSIT BONUS AT MYBOOKIE</span></a></p>

<h3><strong><u>Handicap</u></strong></h3>
As a result, you can take some chances with your selections this week. There are a lot of different guys to consider because this race is pretty wide-open. Almirola has five top-five finishes here in 21 starts and Stenhouse has six in 14, simply by virtue of being able to stay above the fray. They’re usually in a spot where they can be opportunistic and move up spots because they’re running behind the top-tier drivers.

Logano has three wins in the last 10 races at Talladega. Only he and Stenhouse have eclipsed 300 points in that span. Blaney and Keselowski each have two wins in the last 10 races here as well. It sure looks like Ford has a handle on how to do this at the Superspeedway.
<h3><strong><u>Picks</u></strong></h3>
With that in mind, we’ll throw a few darts at the board here. Feel free to go price hunting. Logano at 10/1 is the starting point because he’s an ultra aggressive driver and doesn’t care who he runs over in his way to get there, which is a good strategy at Talladega. It’s the same thing for Stenhouse, who wrecks as much as anybody in NASCAR, but has run well here.

Bowyer at +2800 is worth a look. He has to be aggressive because he’s not winning on the Roval next week. This is his best shot.

Last, away from Ford, we’ll take Erik Jones at +3300. Jones was fifth in the GEICO 500 and runs well on bigger tracks. He’ll round out the card.

Coverage of the Yellawood 500 will be on Sunday at 2 p.m. ET on NBC.

It was a little unsettling to open up the odds screen today and see the NBA at the top of the list. NBA preseason action tips off tonight to go along with a three-pack of games in college football and a much bigger slate of college hoops contests than we saw yesterday.

As always, we’ll highlight a game for you here and that game is the late-night tip between Marquette and UCLA. The Golden Eagles are all the way out in Los Angeles to battle the Bruins in a non-conference game that will be cited down the line when NCAA Tournament seeding is being discussed.

UCLA is -4.5 with a total of 139 for this Big East vs. Pac-12 showdown at <a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betonline"><strong>BetOnline Sportsbook</strong></a>, where you can get a 100% Deposit Match Bonus and an even higher one if you deposit with <a href="http://bangthebook.com/bitcoin-betting-deposits-are-quick-at-betonline-sportsbook/693726/"><strong>Bitcoin</strong></a>.

Let’s break this one down and see if we can get a winner to head into the weekend with a little Uncle Mo.
<h3><strong><u>Marquette</u></strong><strong><u> Golden Eagles</u></strong></h3>
One of the hardest things to account for in college basketball is what happens when a team loses a star player. Marquette bid adieu to Markus Howard after last season’s abrupt end point. The Golden Eagles are off to a decent start with a big home win over Wisconsin and wins over Pine Bluff, Eastern Illinois, and Green Bay. They did lose by eight to a quality defensive squad in Oklahoma State.

Is that data point enough to be concerned about Marquette here? The Golden Eagles are still trying to figure out their go-to guy with Howard gone. In the Wisconsin win, three players were in double figures, led by freshman Justin Lewis. Lewis responded to that big effort with two points in 18 minutes against Green Bay.

It’s still a work in progress for Steve Wojciechowski’s team to say the least. We’ll have to see if Woj made a conscious choice after the Oklahoma State game or not. After playing 78 possessions against the Cowboys, Marquette has played to 63 and 67 possessions in the last two games. New Green Bay head coach Will Ryan is Bo Ryan’s son, so we expected the Phoenix to slow down a bit, but not to the degree that they have or to the degree that they did last time out.

Marquette has shot the ball well from 3, coming in at 37.8%. They’ve also banged well on the offensive glass and have gotten to the free throw line quite a bit. On the defensive side, opponents are only shooting 38.9% from 2 and 26.5% from 3. The Golden Eagles have really buckled down defensively while trying to figure out the offensive side.

<h3><strong><u>UCLA Bruins</u></strong></h3>
UCLA was a bubble team when everything shut down in March. They were going to be a dangerous out in the Pac-12 Tournament. The Bruins lost by 15 to Stanford on January 15 to fall to 8-9 and 1-3 in Pac-12 play. It was the first season under former Cincinnati bench boss Mick Cronin and growing pains were expected with a very, very different style of play.

After that Stanford loss, UCLA went 11-3 and finished the regular season 12-6 in Pac-12 play. A light bulb went on. The players bought in. The only blemishes were road losses to Oregon, Arizona State, and then a two-point loss to USC in what would unknowingly be UCLA’s final game of the season.

After a season opener loss to San Diego State, UCLA is 4-for-4, though the Bruins haven’t played many tough opponents in that span. They have, however, buckled down defensively, including a 20-point win in the conference opener against Cal. Sophomore point guard Tyger Campbell has 6.8 assists against 1.4 turnovers per game and his leadership and ball skills at point guard have made a huge difference for this offense.

UCLA also got back talented sophomore Johnny Juzang for the win over San Diego. He had 10 points on 4-of-6 shooting over 20 minutes of action.

We’ll find out a lot about UCLA over the next few games. They have this non-conference clash with Marquette and then play Kentucky before facing Oregon in Eugene.
<h3><strong><u>Pick &amp; Analysis</u></strong></h3>
Sample sizes can play tricks on your mind at this time of year. Teams are padding stats against bad teams. Marquette’s allowed 46.4% from 2 over the last three games. Their defensive numbers are regressing and it will be a challenge for the offense to be efficient enough here against UCLA. This is also a long trek for the Eagles, who haven’t left Marquette yet.

It’ll be UCLA -4.5 for me.
<h4><strong>Pick: UCLA -4.5</strong></h4>
