Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and leave our college football picks and then also I shall deviate from our regularly scheduled program of NFL debate to dip our feet.
It will almost certainly be the first and only time this season we do this, as the last week of display NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season sport of NCAA football featuring one of the top clubs in the nation, plus a mythical football program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us begin the debate after my friend Doug Upstone got the better of me last week while I supported the Titans. We have been placing wins forth and back so it appears like it is my turn to get the golden wreath, as I will follow the squares laying the lumber that is heavy onto a public street favorite and heartily endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the college football odds almost six days prior to the Monday night affair, I see the line has spiked a half-point about the preferred, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is currently offered at a solid -20 round the board whatsoever of the very best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I love the Irish but you are currently leaning to the Cardinals. Apart from the place, why do you believe Louisville will hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yup , Swinger, a triumph and IMO, it said a lot about the Steelers and Titans management. Let us move to football, will our records on this one and in which the matches count.
Remember all those Thursday night matches Louisville used to play against opponents that are big-name? They more than held their own and engineered upsets. These were fun games to see and the Cardinals were an exciting club.
But like the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its phony (in real life) owner, Louisville football last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out to change the culture and win games and worked miracles at Appalachian State. This wont happen immediately as the talent level is down from theVille. This is a significant moment for Louisville, a team that has the chance.
I have read in which the Cards coaches have sped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and I enjoy Hassan Hall as the direct running back. Than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 the defense that makes me more worried. Why you have your Irish up, please dont forget.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing much flying in this match as the Notre Dame defense will keep them snug in their nest. Scott Satterfield is now in the big leagues and hes got a team coming off of a dismal 2-10 album this past year where they went winless in ACC activity. This rebuild is comparable to taking a hot air balloon and trying to turn it.
While this may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is confronting a team which made it to the CFP this past year and possessed one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points over the normal season and going a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders averaging 33 points per game over.
So, my query is, just how can be a quarterback like Pass who is slow to release, supposed to gain any traction against a swarming shield? Especially when he is working with a coach and an offensive scheme that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, rescue me I am lost! I see no way, shape or form in which Louisville is going to have the ability to keep pace and I am desperate for prodigious handicapping experience and your sage wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am happy to see in your last sentence youre coming around to the glowing side of sport betting, or youre simply being the identical wise a** you are. I will allow the SBR readers that are currently making college soccer picks decide on that. Im the first to realize Louisville fully pumped and was, however, 1-11 ATS final season.
Just like he gave up about the Atlanta Falcons However, coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that team COMPLETELY. A new attitude is brought by A new coach and with this being a federal match, Satterfield will market his team. Louisville does have to hope they will not be taken by the Irish and not have much fight.
Lets also consider, Brian Kelly with gold and the blue is just 10-13-1 ATS as a road favorite, and a ATS, when dishing out more or 20 specimens. This defense you mentioned might improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, if you dont/cant recruit like Bama or Clemson, it will take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was being a bit facetious because though you have an handicapping resumethat you miss the mark from time to time. And in this instance, you happen to be shooting, since Louisville could be greater than last year but I would submit that they could be trained by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their record left by an trainer like Petrino.
I know that placing nearly 3 touchdowns on the road is square biz for sure and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy street chalk, but at times the public is correct, and in this instance they are. Until once we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, next week, let us see what happens on Monday once the Irish come prepared to squint at Louisville.
