Super Bowl Picks From Selected NASCAR Drivers

It’s easy to think of the Daytona 500 as the “Super Bowl of NASCAR.” But could the Super Bowl be the “Daytona 500 of Football?”

Nah, probably not. One reason is that while a decent number of people tune in for the Daytona 500, pretty much everyone watches the Super Bowl.

That includes your favorite NASCAR drivers, of course. Some of them (Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin, Jeff Gordon and Travis Kvapil, among others) will even be at the game.

If you’re wondering who the drivers are picking for the game, we’ve compiled a few picks (you can see the picks below the jump).

Come back later to see which drivers were on the winning side.

  • AJ Allmendinger
  • Matt Kenseth
  • Travis Kvapil
  • Paul Menard
