09/29/2007 - Kansas City, KS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Matt Kenseth captured the pole for Saturday afternoon's Yellow Transportation 300 Busch Series race at the Kansas Speedway. The No.17 Roush Fenway Racing Ford driver circled the 1.5-mile oval in 31.394 seconds (172.007 m.p.h.).
The pole victory was Kenseth's second of the season and 14th of his Busch career. His other pole this season was at Lowe's in May.
Starting with Kenseth on the front row will be Roush teammate Greg Biffle, who posted a time of 31.418 seconds.
Series points leader Carl Edwards (31.432) and Jeff Burton (31.462) will make up row two.
While the "Chase for the Nextel Cup" shows six drivers within 28 points at the top of the charts, in the Busch Series there is no such "race."
The Busch Series uses the "old" scoring system in which points are accumulated over the entire season. Unfortunately, that means that in some years the championship sees a driver run away and hide from the competition. In 2006 Kevin Harvick beat Edwards by a record 824 points. This season is more of the same with Edwards holding a 754-point edge over David Reutimann.
If Edwards leaves the track with an 806-point lead, he will only have to start the final five races to win the title.
But still, there are six more races to be run and won. And racers like to win no matter whether they are in the championship race or not.
The race is scheduled to drop the green flag at 3:30 p.m. (et).

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
