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 selections on the Monday night game between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and also I shall deviate from our regularly scheduled program of NFL debate to dip our feet.
It will probably be the first and only time this season we do this, as the last week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster compared to some regular-season sport of NCAA football featuring one of the greatest teams in the country, and a legendary football program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets begin the debate after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while I supported the Titans. Weve been placing wins back and on so it looks like its my turn to the wreath, as I endorse the Irish and will follow the squares putting the thick lumber on a public road favorite.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days prior to this Monday night affair, I see the line has spiked a half-point on the preferred, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its currently offered at a solid -20 across the board at all the very best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I enjoy the Irish but youre currently leaning within this clash onto the Cardinals. Aside from the place, why do you think Louisville can hang with the boys in South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yup , Swinger, a win and IMO, it said a lot about the management of the Steelers and Titans. Let us move to real soccer, so will our recordings with this one and where the games count.
Recall those Thursday night games Louisville utilized to perform against competitions that are big-name? They held their own and engineered upsets. These were fun games and the Cardinals were a thrilling golf club.
However, for example the former Papa Johns Stadium and its fake (in real life) owner, Louisville soccer last year was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and are out to alter the culture and win matches. This wont happen immediately as the talent level is down in theVille. Nonethelessthis is a time for Louisville, a team which has the opportunity to start taking actions.
I have read where the Cards trainers have sped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and I enjoy Hassan Hall since the lead running back. Than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season 23, the defense that makes me more nervous. You have up your Irish please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing much as the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest flying into this match. Scott Satterfield is presently in the big leagues and he has a group coming off of a dismal 2-10 record this past year, in which they went winless. This rebuild is akin to trying to turn it and carrying a hot air balloon.
While that may eventually occur, the problem is that Louisville is facing a group which made it into the CFP last year and possessed one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points over the regular season and going a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense was clicking on all cylinders as well, averaging over 33 points per match.
So, my issue is, just how will be a quarterback like Pass who is slow to release, supposed to gain some traction against a defense? Especially when hes working with a trainer and an offensive scheme?
Please, Doug, rescue me I am lost! I see no way, shape or form in which Louisville will have the ability to keep up and I am desperate for prodigious handicapping experience and the brand new wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im pleased to see in your last sentence you are coming over to the glowing side of sport betting, or you are simply being the same wise a** you usually are. I will let the SBR readers that are currently making that is decided on by college football picks. Im the first to realize Louisville was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 and fully pumped final year.
Like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons However, that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A fresh attitude is brought by A coach and with this being a game, Satterfield will market his staff. Louisville does need to hope the Irish will take them and never have a lot of fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly using gold and all the blue is simply 10-13-1 ATS as a road favorite, and a mere 7-9-1 ATS, when dishing out 20 or more digits. That defense you said may improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, even whenever you dont/can not amuse like Bama or Clemson, it is going to take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was a bit facetious because although youve got an handicapping that was impressive restart, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this scenario, because Louisville might be greater but I would submit that they are coached by a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their record left by an equally inept trainer like Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that laying nearly three touchdowns on the road would be square biz for certain along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy road chalk, but at times the people is right, and also in this case they surely are. Until once we get down on our NFL Game of the Week, next week, lets see what happens on Monday night once the Irish come ready to rumble in Louisville.
