SM Pick ‘Em: Jeff Byrd 500

Kyle Brandt

Who I think will win: Carl Edwards.
Dark-horse: Regan Smith.
Carl has all the momentum in the world right now, including starting from the pole for Sunday’s race. Regan has had strong cars every week since the season has started. With all the technology his team is getting from Hendrick and Childress, as well as starting near the front, Regan is poised by a strong run on Sunday.

Barry Albert

Who I Think Will Win: Kyle Busch
My Dark Horse Pick: Jimmie Johnson

Roberta Cowan

Who I Think Will Win: Dale Jr.
My Dark Horse Pick: Ryan Newman

Mark Odor

Who I Think Will Win: Kyle Busch
My Dark Horse Pick: Joey Logano

Ryan O’Hara

Who I Think Will Win: Kurt Busch
My Dark Horse Pick: Tony Stewart
Comments: Busch dominated this race last year and Stewart is looking for redemption.

Matt LaFlair

Who I Think Will Win: Kyle Busch
My Dark Horse Pick: David Ragan
Comments: One word for the #18 pick…DOMINANCE! Each year, a group of folks from the Syracuse area make the trek to the great state of Tennessee, and each year they watch Kyle run circles around all their own drivers ALL WEEKEND. This race weekend will not be any different. Watch for the #18 to lead the majority of laps both Saturday and Sunday. As for the David Ragan pick, his luck has to turn soon. He has run well at Bristol in the past, and I see him somewhere towards the front come lap 500 on Sunday.

Jeffrey Boswell

Who I Think Will Win: Clint Bowyer
My Dark Horse Pick: Joey Logano

Ed Coombs

Who I Think Will Win: Carl Edwards
My Dark Horse Pick: Kasey Kahne
Comments: Carl Edwards is back and with the first pit stall, a fast car and a hot streak I can\’t bet against him. It is Bristol and anything can happen but when this guys on a rail at Bristol, he\’s tough to beat, if he can stay out of trouble.

Kahne is another guy that if he can stay out of trouble will be a factor. I\’d love to also throw Martin Truex Jr. in this mix too, he does well on concrete too…

should be a fun time …
