CFB RETURNING STARTER ANGLE WEEK 14 (2011) Many
years ago I received a newsletter from Mike Lee, a sports handicapper who just
recently passed away in the past few years. I’m not sure if he came up with this
Returning starter angle or if he was just passing it along but it has really
been a nice addition to my own personal handicapping arsenal. He had said in his
newsletter that the previous year the angle had hit above 70%. I was skeptical
but I started following the angle and the next two years it achieved the 70%+
mark again. In recent years the angle has not been as strong but still
profitable. The Returning Starter angle is as follows: Play On: Any team
returning five or more net starters against their opponent. I use Marc
Lawrence’s Playbook Yearbook for returning starter information. Go down the list
and compare each team’s returning starters. An example from the 1st week would
be Mississippi State vs Memphis. Mississippi State has 15 starters returning for
Head Coach Dan Mullen while Memphis returns only 9 starters for Head Coach Larry
Porter. That’s a difference a 6 returning starters in favor of Mississippi
State. Mississippi State won the game easily by a score of 59-14 in the Thursday
night opener. Let’s take a look at this week’s returning starter angle and see
if it can produce us another winning week. Keep in mind several other factors
should go into your handicapping methods, so be sure to use this as an addition
to your overall handicapping formula. We’ll put returning starters in
parenthesis. Week 1 Results only 2-6 ATS and Week 2 were 6-5 ATS and Week 3 3-5
ATS and Week 4 5-3 ATS and Week 5 4-4 ATS and Week 6 6-2 ATS and Week 7 9-5 ATS
and Week 8 5-4 ATS and 4-2 ATS in Week 9 and 7-4 ATS in Week 10 and 7-3 ATS in
Week 11 and 3-3 ATS in Week 12 and 5-2 ATS in Week 13. We’ll keep a running
total for the season. 46-25 65% the past 8 weeks combined! BYU (19) vs Hawaii
(9) Play On: BYU Louisiana Monroe (19) vs Florida Atlantic (12) Play On:
