When the NASCAR Cup Series heads to a drafting superspeedway such as Daytona or Talladega, many people look toward Bubba Wallace as a race-winning contender. However, more often than not, Bubba disappoints--especially at Talladega. Although he does have a win here (in a rain-shortened race in 2021), that is Wallace's only finish better than 14th in 13 career starts at the track. In the Next Gen era, he has yet to finish better than 16th. While the races at these big superspeedways remain unpredictable, it's noteworthy that Bubba has continually run into issues when it comes to getting a finish at Talladega, now over a seven-year sample size. This weekend, the 23XI Racing driver qualified back in 26th, which gives Bubba very high Place Differential upside for DFS players, and he should be very high-owned in tournaments. There's an argument and strategy for going underweight on Bubba this weekend.--Jordan McAbeeRead More News
