Listed below are my projections and analysis for today’s Bojangles Southern 500 at Darlington. With 367 laps, this is generally a race where we see three Hogs consume the majority of laps led and fast lap points, however, Draftkings has priced up the top tier drivers so much that we’re legitimately considering whether we just play two Hogs instead of three. With Hamlin on the pole, it opens up things a little bit more so that you can play for example Hamlin, Larson, plus Harvick but you’re still double punting which never makes anyone feel easy. I don’t really think there will be a standard lineup construction this weekend as you can go down several different roads. If you foresee a greenish race then I think you run with two Hogs but if you think drivers get anxious, especially those who need a win to sneak into the playoffs, then you’re probably looking at a three “dominator” lineup.
