Busch rebounds for another truck win at Atlanta

Hampton, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Not even late-race transmission problems could
stop Kyle Busch from winning his fourth Camping World Truck Series race at
Atlanta Motor Speedway as he bounced back in the final laps to take Saturday's
American Commercial Lines 200.
Busch, who started on the pole, held the lead for a restart with 12 laps to
go, but dropped back in the field after loosing second and third gears. He
overcame his mechanical issues by driving past Todd Bodine for the top spot
with five laps remaining. Busch then fought off a furious charge by fellow
Sprint Cup driver Kevin Harvick in the final two laps to follow up on his
victory two weeks ago at California.
"The restart there, I stepped in it, and as soon as I stepped in it and I
applied power, it snapped it into (second gear), and I had to go all the way
to fourth," Busch said. "I kind of had to lug it all the way around there. I
got out of the way so those guys could go and race and did not want to block
them up. It felt like an eternity to get this thing up to speed and get going.
Once we got there man, I didn't lift those final 12 laps, and I stayed in the
gas wide open right in the middle groove and it prevailed."
On the restart, Busch did not get up to speed while Terry Cook passed him for
the lead. Colin Braun also passed Busch on the backstretch, but Braun bumped
into the back of Cook and then was tapped from behind by Brian Scott. Braun
spun and slammed into the inside wall. The fifth and final caution setup an
eight-lap shootout to the finish.
Cook held the lead for the final restart, while Busch ran in the ninth spot.
But Busch charged to the front in three laps after he got back up to speed.
"I don't think we out trucked them today, but we out drove them at the end,"
Busch said.
The victory was Busch's 11th career in the series. He won last year's spring
event at Atlanta.
Busch has finished either first or second in the first three races this
season.
Harvick led the most laps with 68, but finished a truck-length behind in
second.
"That was a lot of fun there at the end," Harvick said. "The thing was fast,
but it doesn't matter if you can't do a pit stop."
Harvick, competing in his first truck race this season, struggled on his pit
stops.
Bodine finished third. Mike Skinner came in fourth, and Cook was fifth.
Chad McCumbee, Ron Hornaday Jr., Mike Bliss, Johnny Benson and Scott completed
the top-10.
On lap 74, Braun hit Ricky Carmichael from behind, turning Carmichael around.
Dennis Setzer slammed into Carmichael's truck while trying to avoid the
incident.
With the victory, Busch increased his lead to 25 points over Bodine.
The next race is scheduled for Saturday, March 28 at Martinsville Speedway.

Big 12 Conference betting odds
Work left to do: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Kansas State
 Texas joins Texas A&M and Kansas as locks after getting league win No. 11. Texas Tech greatly helped its own hopes and crippled OK State's with the two-point win Saturday. Is K-State the last reasonable hopeful? Could be an elimination match in Stillwater on Tuesday, at least for the Cowboys.
Work left to do:
Texas Tech [18-11 (7-7), RPI: 44, SOS: 12] A critical two-point win over OK State leaves the Red Raiders with Baylor and at Iowa State left. Get both and the Red Raiders likely are good to go. Get one and there could be some interesting comparisons with a K-State team that could finish two or three games "ahead" of them in the standings but doesn't have any of the quality wins Texas Tech has. Not a lot in nonconference play (against Arkansas in Little Rock being the best win, by far) to lean on.
Oklahoma State [18-9 (5-8), RPI: 50, SOS: 35] Still without a road win, the Cowboys now need to win two on the road just to get to .500 in conference play. It's hard to recall a team (OK, other than Clemson) falling so precipitously from lock status to almost certainly out of the NCAAs at this point. There are wins to be had in the last three, including a very big home game against K-State on Tuesday, but this team is reeling. Can you tell the pressure to win is getting to them with the way the final possession played out at Texas Tech? There are some good nonconference performances to lean on, specifically beating Missouri State and Syracuse on neutral floors and Pitt in OK City, but if the Pokes don't right this very, very soon, that won't be enough.
Kansas State [20-9 (9-5), RPI: 56, SOS: 96] It pays to be in the Big 12 North. The nine league wins are Colorado (twice), Missouri (twice), Iowa State (twice), Baylor, Nebraska and (a good one against) Texas. That helps explain the middling computer profile. The win over USC is nice, but the nonconference leaves a lot to be desired. The game at OK State in Stillwater on Tuesday is huge, as it could KO the Cowboys and leave K-State with a home date against Oklahoma with which to work.
