WEEK #1 RETURNING STARTERS BREAKDOWN

By Christian Alexander
Posted 09/04/2009 at 11:07 PM

I look for any game that has a +5 or more difference in returning starters. Here are the games that fit that bill from the opening weekend (Sept. 5-7). Home team in CAPS. Current spread from Sports.com also listed in parenthesis.

Akron +7 advantage in RS over PENN STATE (-29)

CAL +7 advantage in RS over Maryland (+21)

TEXAS A&M +6 advantage in RS over New Mexico (+15)

EASTERN MICHIGAN +6 advantage in RS over Army (+3.5)

Illinois +5 advantage in RS over Missouri

RUTGERS +5 advantage in RS over Cincinnati (+5)

Of those listed, I definitely like Illinois (-5) the most.

Click here for my pick pack (7 total plays) for this weekend.
