SPARTA, Ky. -- Storms washed out qualifying at Kentucky Speedway on Friday, putting Kevin Harvick on the pole for Saturday nights Sprint Cup Series race based on owner points.Severe weather moved over the track near midday and shortened practice to around 30 minutes. A brief sprinkle followed but cars were able to return to the track for practice.In any event, Harvicks No. 4 Chevy will lead the field to green alongside Brad Keselowski in the No. 2 Ford.It is the first Kentucky pole for Harvick, who has two top-five starts in five trips here. But he and other drivers likely will have to reboot their strategy after rain washed the 1.5 mile tri-oval clean of rubber they put down in hopes of widening grooves on the resurfaced and reconfigured track.Hopefully, being able to get some more practice will be beneficial, Harvick said. We still dont really have a good idea of exactly where we need to be as far as balance and what is going to happen the longer you run the car.Given the 2014 champions consistency this season, Harvick seems likely to figure it out.Harvick hasnt won since the fourth race at Phoenix, but has posted 13 top-10 finishes in 17 starts. He has led the points after the past eight races but has generated less buzz compared to counterparts such as Keselowski or defending champion Kyle Busch, who are tied with a series-best three wins.Harvick thinks his steady results will translate into victories.We are cleaning a lot of things up as we go from week to week, he said, and hopefully we are ready as we get into the Chase and have everything hitting on all cylinders. I feel good about the performance and good about the progress that we have made with adjusting and adapting and the things that we have been able to achieve have been OK. Hopefully we can keep making them better.The rest of the top 10: Kurt Busch (Chevy); Joey Logano (Ford); Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Carl Edwards and Kyle Busch in Toyotas; Martin Truex Jr. (Toyota); rookie Chase Elliott (Chevy); Jimmie Johnson (Chevy) and Denny Hamlin (Toyota).SECOND FIDDLEJohnson and Kurt Busch will race in backup Chevys after wrecking their primary cars. Johnsons No. 48 got loose in turn 4 in the morning session and smacked the outside wall, sustaining heavy damage after posting the second-fastest speed of 188.121 mph. Busch hit the wall in the final evening practice and went to his backup No. 41 Chevy. Both drivers will move to the back of the field per NASCAR rules.MAKERS MARKToyota and Chevy each has four spots in the top 10 with seven drivers coming from three teams. Harvick is joined by Stewart-Haas Racing teammate Kurt Busch, while Johnson has company in Hendrick Motorsports stablemate Elliott. Hamlin, Edwards and Kyle Busch will represent Joe Gibbs Racing.ON THE VERGEThough Keselowski is tied with Kyle Busch for the most Kentucky wins with two each, dont be shocked if Penske Racing teammate Logano breaks through. He was second last July and has three consecutive top-10s with 60 laps led combined the past two years.RUBBER MATCHCup cars will feature a different Goodyear tire package from last months test after the manufacturer noticed blistering afterward. The new package is harder with the right-side tire using the same construction as the one used at Michigan. Harvick crew chief Rodney Childers voiced his displeasure with the change Thursday with a tweet that said, We will never ever go test for 2 days on an off week again, on the wrong tires.Keselowski seemed to like the change, saying Friday that the tire change seems to have not only been warranted, but very successful. We havent seen any issues as of now, but of course that can always change throughout the weekend. Admiral Schofield Jersey .R.

Notre Dame?coach Brian Kelly said Monday he hopes the discipline he issued out to six football players this past weekend helps teach the Fighting Irish about accountability and responsibility.Speaking to SiriusXM College Sports Nation, Kelly, in his first interview since six of his players were arrested over two separate incidents on Friday night and Saturday morning, said he needed to remind his players about their priorities while at Notre Dame.Well first of all, you remind them about why theyre here, Kelly said on the radio show. And certainly accountability is the most important thing. And Ive always felt, Im a parent, too. And as good parents always do, theres always education in the process. You want to make sure that youre going through everything with them and making sure that they understand what the priorities are: academics, athletics.You want them to enjoy their time here, but theyve got to make good decisions. And then if they dont, hold them accountable for it, and we certainly have done that.In a strongly worded statemeent Sunday, Kelly dismissed senior starting free safety Max Redfield, suspended senior cornerback Devin Butler indefinitely and said that four other players arrested Friday night will be subject to internal disciplinary measures within the team.ddddddddddddedfield, sophomore linebacker TeVon Coney, freshman wide receiver Kevin Stepherson, redshirt freshman cornerback Ashton White and sophomore running back Dexter Williams were arrested Friday night in Fulton County (Indiana) after police stopped them for speeding.
