Returning Starter Angle Week 13
by: Rocketman Sports
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. We’ll keep a running total for the season. 41-23 64% the past 7 weeks combined!
Texas (12) vs Texas A&M (18) Play On: Texas A&M
Alabama (16) vs Auburn(6) Play On: Alabama
Memphis (9) vs Southern Miss (15) Play On: Southern Miss
Notre Dame (16) vs Stanford (11) Play On: Notre Dame
San Jose State (17) vs Fresno State (9) Play On: San Jose State

Hope this helps you find some extra winners this week!
