Like a pro - Handicapping Football
Handicapping consists of couple of hours of studying the past week’s injuries and line moves, and the past month’s trends. If you are a part-time handicapper with college football it means an exercise in discipline and time management.
On Monday, read comprehensively, all accounts of the past Saturday’s college games. Online resources provide in full step-by-step, the description of each game, which will give you essential information on a given team’s performance, regardless of the final score..
Dedicate Tuesday by studying the statistics and numbers from games played, in addition to studying relevant trends. Focus on turnovers forced and committed as well as rushing and passing yards.
Mid-week, occupy yourself with reading quotes from coaches and players, which will give you an idea of how a certain team is doing both mentally and physically. Check out the injuries suffered by players. Gain insight into a team’s upcoming performance by understanding the comments of coaches and players.
