Andrew Lange’s Handicapping Experience: Sports have by and large been Andrew Lange’s entire life. From playing scholarship basketball and baseball in college, to working at a national publication and then on to various university athletic departments, there is little that Andrew hasn’t seen or experienced when it comes to sports.
“Coming to Sportsmemo and working my way into the role of a handicapper was really the perfect way to take advantage of everything I’ve learned. I always understood the nuances of the sports world and after soaking in three years worth of information and tips from the great handicappers here at Sportsmemo, the transition into handicapping was an exciting opportunity.”
Outside of handicapping, Lange serves as senior editor of the Sportsmemo Newsletter. Lange’s Best Bets and in-depth articles are fixtures in each weekly issue. Lange has also been a driving force behind the famed Sportsmemo Newsletter Previews; helping subscribers earn profitable postseason campaigns in college football and basketball for three straight years. His insight and betting recommendations during this past year’s college basketball March Madness Guide scored a phenomenal 22-7 against the spread record in the first round. Lange is also a frequent contributor to the Sportsmemo Radio Show and the Sportsmemo Posting Forum.
Andrew Lange’s Handicapping System: Lange’s approach to sports handicapping balances both statistical and situational angles.
”There is certainly some truth to the concept that “stats never lie” but in order to be successful, you have to go beyond that. A lot of the spreads we go up against don’t have value when you look at generic statistics. I try to find situational and fundamental edges that aren’t reflected in the lines – bounce backs, injuries, line inflation, home court/field advantages, etc. From there, I look at what games have the type of value that gives my clients and me the best opportunity to win.”
Andrew Lange’s Favorite Handicapping Tool: Lange’s mantra is to read and listen to as many opinions as possible. Without question, the best of those are found daily on the Sportsmemo Radio Show and sportsmemo.com.
“I can’t tell you how important the Radio Show and website have been in me becoming a handicapper. Listening to the show, talking with my fellow handicappers and utilizing my own philosophies is a combination I am confident will produce results over the long term.”
