Jakob Chychrun Contributes Other Ways in Arizona Loss

For Jakob Chychrun, it was a long night as the Arizona Coyotes lost yet again. This time it was a shutout defeat at the hands of the New York Islanders. Chychrun attempted six shots and four went on net. The problem is the defender only had one, maybe two quality chances the entire game. This […]

Aric Almirola Could Move Up At Kansas

While Aric Almirola has plenty of risks, he did finish 13th or better in three of his previous four results at Kansas. 2017 even saw him end up 9th which was a +16 place differential. The Stewart Haas Racing driver could have the Kevin Harvick build in use for Sunday too. Though he has never […]

Bubba Wallace One To Avoid At Kansas

Bubba Wallace has seen Kansas not be all that kind to the racing driver. As a matter of fact, the 23XI Racing driver has never finished better than 18th. That 2020 Fall race was his best place differential at +6. He starts 27th and could move up a little but even that seems not so […]

Alex Bowman Has Place-Differential Possibilities At Kansas

Alex Bowman is the one Hendricks Motorsports Racing driver that has been forgotten some. Bowman will start the Sunday afternoon race at Kansas from the 25th position. The No. 48 car has four top-ten results in his previous seven races. That translates to an average finish of 9.86. That is right near Kyle Larson's 9.6. […]

Erik Jones begins this Kansas race from the 17th position on Sunday afternoon. That may be good news based on his 10.14 average finish. That includes five top-ten results in his previous seven races on the 1.5-mile speedway. The risk lies in the fact that with the Richard Petty Motorsports driver ended 25th during the […]

Daniel Suarez Likely To Fall At Kansas On Sunday

Daniel Suarez and Trackhouse Racing have the Spring race at Kansas kind of figured out. However, when the leaves fall and the weather changes, so do the fortunes.

Matt DiBenedetto Does Have DFS Upside At Kansas

Matt DiBenedetto and his time with Wood Brothers Racing is almost at an end. However, one of his best results of the season was a fourth-place at Kansas. Lost in the shuffle is this. DiBenedetto finished in 15th (2019 Fall race). Then, there was the 12th last Fall. In that race, the No. 21 driver […]

Austin Dillon Unlikely To Be Much Of A Factor

Austin Dillon may just finish right around where he starts on Sunday. The Richard Childress Racing driver begins 14th. Most of his results have been ranging from 10th-17th since 2017. Dillon typically does not get too close to the front either. In his career, the No. 3 car has led just six laps. Again, the […]

Kurt Busch Could Lurk Around Top 10 At Kansas

Kurt Busch had a bit of a lost time the past two races on the Kansas track. He started 28th this Spring and still ended up in the top-15. The No. 1 driver had three top-tens before an engine issue in the 2019 Fall race. The Chip Ganassi vehicle does carry some good speed. However, […]
