Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and leave our school football picks on the Monday night match between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and then that I shall detract to dip our toes into uncharted waters.
It will probably be the very first and only time this year we do so, as the previous week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season sport of NCAA soccer comprising one of the very best teams in the country, and a mythical football program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us begin the debate after my buddy Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while the Titans were backed by me. Weve been placing wins back and forth so it appears like its my turn for the gold wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will accompany the squares laying the lumber that is heavy onto a road favorite.
After reviewing the school football odds almost six days ahead of the Monday night affair, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point about the preferred, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is now offered in a solid -20 throughout the board whatsoever the best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I love the Irish but youre currently leaning onto the Cardinals within this clash. Aside from the place is it that you think Louisville could hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yup , Swinger, IMO and a convincing triumph, it said a lot about the Steelers and Titans management. Let us proceed to football, where the matches rely and will our recordings with this one.
Recall all those Thursday night matches Louisville used to perform against opponents that are big-name? They held their own and engineered several upsets. These were enjoyable games and the Cardinals were an club.
However, for example the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its phony (in real life) proprietor, Louisville football last season was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield are out win games and to alter the civilization and worked wonders in Appalachian State. This will not happen immediately as the talent level is down in theVille. Yet , this is a major time for Louisville, a group which has the chance.
Ive read in which the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and that I enjoy Hassan Hall because the lead running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season 23, the protection which makes me more worried. Please do tell youve got up your Irish.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing flying in this match as the Notre Dame defense will keep them cozy in their nest. Scott Satterfield is presently in the big leagues and he has a group coming from a dismal 2-10 album last year in which they went winless. This rebuild is akin to seeking to turn it and taking a hot air balloon.
While this may eventually occur, the problem is that Louisville is confronting a group that made it to the CFP this past year and owned one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points over the normal season and going a perfect 12-0 till they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense was clicking on all cylinders as well, averaging 33 points per game over.
My question is, just how can be a quarterback like traveling whos slow to discharge, designed to get some traction against a swarming shield? Especially when he is working with a trainer and an offensive scheme?
Please, Doug, save me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville is going to have the ability to keep pace and I am desperate to handicapping expertise that is prodigious and the sage wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im happy to read in your last sentence youre coming on to the bright side of sports gambling, or you are simply being the identical shrewd a** you are. I will let the SBR readers that are currently making school football selections decide on that. I am the first to realize Louisville fully pumped and was, however 1-11 ATS last season.
Just like he gave up about the Atlanta Falcons However, that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A new attitude is brought by A coach on creating a statement and this being a match, his team will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does need to hope not and the Irish will take them for granted have a lot of fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly with all the blue and gold is ATS as a road favorite, also when dishing out 20 or more specimens, a mere 7-9-1 ATS. This defense you said might improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, whenever you dont/cant recruit like Bama or Clemson, it will take some time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was a bit facetious because although you have an impressive handicapping resume, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this case, because Louisville could be better than last year but Id submit that they are coached with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their record rendered by an coach such as Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that placing nearly three touchdowns on the street is square biz for sure and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy street chalk, but sometimes the general public is right, and also in this case they surely are. Until next week once we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, lets see what happens on Monday once the Irish come ready to rumble in Louisville.
