Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and leave our college football selections on the Monday night match between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and then also I shall detract from our regularly scheduled program of NFL discussion to dip our toes into uncharted waters.
It will most likely be the very first and only time this year we do this, as the last week of exhibition NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster in comparison to some regular-season game of NCAA soccer featuring one of the best teams in the country, plus a mythical football program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us begin the debate after my buddy Doug Upstone got the better of me last week while I supported the Titans. Weve been placing wins back and forth so it appears like it is my turn to the wreath, as I will accompany the squares laying the lumber that is heavy on a public road favorite and endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the school football odds almost six days prior to the Monday night affair, I see the line has spiked a half-point on the preferred, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its now offered at a solid -20 throughout the board whatsoever the best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I love the Irish but you are currently leaning within this battle on the Cardinals. Besides the venue is it that you think Louisville can hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yup Swinger, and a convincing win IMO, it said a lot about the management of the Steelers and Titans. Let us move ahead to real soccer, in which the matches count and so will our recordings with this one.
Remember those Thursday night games Louisville used to play against opponents? They more than held their engineered and own several upsets. These were fun games and also the Cardinals were an club.
But just for example the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its phony (in real life) proprietor, Louisville soccer last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and will be out to alter the culture and win matches. This wont happen immediately as the ability level is down from theVille. This is a time for Louisville, a group that has the opportunity to start taking steps.
I have read in which the Cards coaches have sped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and that I like Hassan Hall as the direct running back. The shield that makes me more nervous than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9. You have up your Irish, please dont forget.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing much since the Notre Dame defense will keep them snug in their nest flying into this game. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and he has a group coming from a dismal 2-10 album where they went winless last year. This rebuild is akin to taking a hot air balloon and seeking to turn it into an F-22 Raptor.
While this could eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is facing a team that made it to the CFP last year and owned only 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 until they fulfilled Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The offense was clicking on all cylinders averaging 33 points per game over.
My question is, how is a quarterback like traveling who is slow to release, designed to get some traction against a swarming Irish defense? Especially when he is working with a coach and an offensive scheme that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, rescue me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville will have the ability to keep up and Im desperate for your sage wisdom and handicapping expertise!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im happy to read in your last sentence you are coming around to the sunny side of sport gambling, or you are simply being the exact identical shrewd a** you usually are. I will allow the SBR readers that are making this is decided on by school football selections. I am the first to understand Louisville completely sucked and was, but 1-11 ATS final year.
Like he gave up to the Atlanta Falcons However, that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A fresh mindset is brought by A coach and his team will be sold by Satterfield on making a statement with this being a game. Louisville does have to hope never and the Irish will take them have a lot of fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly using the blue and gold is ATS as a road favorite, also a ATS, if dishing out more or 20 digits. This defense you said may improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, even whenever you dont/cant recruit like Clemson or even Bama, it is going to take some time.
I was being 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 situation, because Louisville might be better than last year but Id submit that they could be coached with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document rendered by an awkward coach like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that laying nearly 3 touchdowns on the road is square biz for sure along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy road chalk, but sometimes the public is correct, and also in this instance they really are. Until once we get back on our NFL Game of the Week next week, lets see what happens on Monday night once the Irish come ready to squint at Louisville.
