The 2018 NASCAR season rolls on with GoBowling at The Glen at Watkins Glen International on Sunday at 3 p.m. ET. Kyle Busch is the favorite in the 2018 NASCAR at Watkins Glen odds at 3-1. But there are plenty of other drivers close behind on the GoBowling at the Glen odds board such as Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. at 4-1, and four others going off at 10-1 or shorter. Before you lock in your 2018 NASCAR at Watkins Glen picks, you need to see what SportsLine’s projection model has to say.
The model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has a proven track record in multiple sports. It also powers McClure’s DFS projections, which have led him to over $1 million in career winnings.
McClure, who has a mechanical engineering degree, grew up around race tracks. Big racing events like this are in his blood, and his model has been crushing its 2018 NASCAR picks.
The model has already made several huge calls this year, nailing the 1-2 finish for Busch and Harvick at the O’Reilly Auto Parts 500 as well as Harvick’s win at the KC Masterpiece 400. It also nailed five of the top 10 at Bristol and two of the top five at Daytona, just to name a few. Anybody following its picks this season is way, way up.
Now that the 2018 NASCAR at Watkins Glen field is locked, SportsLine simulated the event 10,000 times and the results were surprising.
One surprising pick from the model for GoBowling at The Glen 2018: Denny Hamlin, going off at 15-1, makes a strong run at the checkered flag.
Hamlin is the only driver in NASCAR with four top-five finishes in the last five road races. He also won at Watkins Glen in 2016 and recorded another top-five finish in this event in 2017. He’s a major value at 15-1 NASCAR at Watkins Glen 2018 odds and a target for anyone looking for a huge payday.
Another shocker: Truex Jr., getting the second-best odds at 4-1, doesn’t even finish in the top five.
He’s had plenty of success on road tracks, including winning last year. But he’s a risky pick at these odds because he has an average finish position of 12th at Watkins Glen in his career and has finished 10th or worse in three of his last six races here. There are better values available in this loaded Go Bowling at The Glen field.
The model is also targeting two huge underdogs with odds longer than 30-1 who are poised to make a serious run at the checkered flag. Anyone who bets on these underdogs could strike it rich.
