Gordon knew exactly what to do when Matt Kenseth took Joey Logano into the speedway walls of Martinsville. Jeff Gordon is soon going to retire. Still, he put himself in a position to acquire the fifth Sprint Cup Championship. On Sunday, it was the opening race of eliminator round. Gordon’s victory is the first for this season, and all credit goes to his wonderful car on his best track. On Sunday, the situation was much like Martinsville’s hot dog. On one side, where people took it as a tasty and iconic moment, others treated it like a stomach churning and disgusting stuff.
There are going to be questions about NASCAR’s credibility as they determine whether or not to sanction Kenseth. Still Gordon’s victory is going to be very beneficial for NASCAR. A star who has not won any championship since 2001 is not going to get a shot at the homestead. Gordon is all aware about the retaliation. He was punished with $1,00,000 fine on dumping Clint Bowyer at Phoenix retaliation in the year 2012. Logano’s hopes for winning the tile was not only ruined, but destroyed by Kenseth. Last week Kenseth came short in Talladega. Logano’s Brad Keselowski had put Kenseth down by 10 laps.
Kenseth returned the favour very well to Logano this Sunday. Now, that Gordon is already acquiring one position out of the four championship spot there are three others left. By winning one of the two races at Phoenix and Texas, other chase drivers can earn bids for the remaining positions. This elimination format is named as the quintessential NASCAR, which brought out the worst in Kenseth. Sunday was a day full of mixed types of feelings among the fans. Gordon was seen giving high fives to many fans as they lined up in the victory celebration.

It usually becomes cumbersome to decide the outcome of a game based on any mistake. It is such a confusing task to watch the replay for nine minutes at least. This Sunday the communicator and replay officials were suspended for carrying out their work carelessly. It was on their judgment passed for Miami’s wild kickoff return in a 30-27 victory over Duke on Saturday. ACC backed their suspension orders by saying the officials missed an illegal block in the back. However, they failed to reverse the statement that Miami’s player did not put his knee down when he lateraled.
Actually, he did put his knee down. ACC also failed to penalize the player from Hurricane, who improbably jumped into the field from the sideline. Besides these two things, the officials got the entire play exactly right. Unfortunately, this turned out to be the second loss of the season for Duke. If the outcome was to be overturned, it would be because of the shocking errors. These errors might have prevented the Blue Devils from winning the ACC’s Coastal Division.
Finally, we cannot change the result and thus the Blue Devils will join Temple and Pittsburgh as FBS teams as the teams eliminated from the College Football Payoff. Today, after nine weeks, out of total 128 teams 107 teams have been eliminated. Now, there are only 21 teams left for the four sports hunt. Among all this hassle, a thrilling and tougher game is expected in the coming rounds.
