    I wasn't a NASCAR fan or racing fan at all, but a friend told me to pick a driver and follow him all season long. Well, he was right, I picked Kenseth and having someone to follow has gotten me into the sport. As to your question, a lot of things have to go his way, but having followed all season any thing can happen on race day.

    NO, Well actually he can but I hope he doesn't BIG J.J fan and Matt Kenseth is definitely 1 driver I definitely Don't like. If Kenseth was to win Homestead J.J would only have to finish 12th not taken in consideration of bonus points for either driver. So I would say the race is definitely Johnsons to lose. Even Matt has admitted he is not confident that they can beat Johnson unless he has major issues Sunday.

    I think (and hope) kenseth has a good chance at it. But he would need a good race and good pit stops and he would need Johnson to either have a lower starting position or at least be a straggler at the end. I can't stand J.J. or any of the driver's on the Hendrick team. I would have to go with Kenseth.

    Jimmy Johnson will win the cup. He has too many points for Matt kenseth to make up for.

    i am a die hard kenseth fan and i really hope so but it is unlikely. They said all johnson had to do was finish 12th and he clinches. I think he will do that. Johnson needs to have a mechanical failure to lose the cup. I don't think he will run that low without some sort of problem. I don't know what happened. Matt was doing so well when the chase started. His team just fell apart. I really hate johnson but i guess i just have to face it.

    Matt wins only if Jimmie Johnson has a bad wreck or blows an engine early and goes out of the race. I think Matt will finish ahead of Harvick, Hamlin, and Earnhardt. This is Jimmie Johnson's championship to lose.

    Unlikely. But.... Jimmie Johnson has had chase troubles in the past. Just hope Johnson gets lower than 20th and Kenseth has a really good shot.

    If Jimmy Johnson doesnt win this cup, we can officially label him the new generation's Mark Martin...the greatest driver to not win a Championship (sorry Junior...jimmy's been WAY more consistent)

    No, JJ will win it, as much as it is painful to say. Even if Kenseth fails, Harvick's team has put themselves in a position to have a good run this weekend (same chasis as they finished 3rd in Texas with), and Kenseth's team has faded of late.

    I don't think he can because Jimmie Johnson is usually having a good race and Kenseth has some bad luck this year
