College basketball betting players should check out another type of March Madness on Sunday, as Bristol Motor Speedway's half-mile track brings out the worst in the best drivers in NASCAR. The Food City 500 should be no exception, and the winner will be someone who has been to Victory Lane at Bristol before, looking to break a long winless streak. NASCAR Betting - Sunday, March 21, 2:00 PM ET The Busch brothers, Kyle (+600) and Kurt (+1200) will be ones to watch, with six wins in the Bristol spring race between them. Kurt won every year from 2002 to 2006, with the exception of 2005, and he's coming off a big win at Atlanta two weeks ago. Busch swept last year's Bristol races, and he's won two of the last three spring races in Tennessee. You also have to watch out for Denny Hamlin (+700), and after his slow start to the season, the driver who tore his ACL playing basketball in the offseason will put down his March Madness bracket for a minute. Hamlin's 9.0 average in four Bristol spring races is the best among active drivers, and he's one of the best short-track drivers in the series. If you lay some money with Greg Biffle (+1800) or Juan Montoya (+2000), and they win, head over and put it in an internet super casino. Biffle has five top-10s in seven Bristol spring races, and he's one of four drivers, along with Kevin Harvick (+1000) and Matt Kenseth (+2000), who have finished in the top 10 in all four races so far this year. Montoya had his first top-10 at Bristol in last year's race, finishing ninth, and he needs a good run to get some confidence back. Montoya is great on road courses, and with his braking ability, it comes as no surprise to anyone that he is getting betting on short ovals. It wouldn't even be a stretch to say that Montoya's first oval win will come on a track like Bristol, Martinsville, or even Richmond. Those are all good choices, but Harvick is the guy you want this week. Harvick hasn't won a points race since the 2007 Daytona 500, but he has come out this season on fire, and the RCR cars look like they're finally ready to compete with the Hendricks and the JGRs of the NASCAR world. Harvick won this race in 2005, and his 9.2 average in nine spring races at Bristol is second only to Hamlin, and you could argue that's better because Harvick has more experience. Bristol suits his driving style just fine, and he's not afraid to move anyone out of the way. Take a chance on Kevin Harvick before checking out your odds on March Madness.
