Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and that I will detract to dip our toes and render our school football selections on the Monday night game between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Louisville Cardinals.
It will most likely be the first and only time this season we do this, as the previous week of display NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to some regular-season game of NCAA soccer comprising one of the best teams in the nation, and a legendary soccer program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets start the debate after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while the Titans were backed by me. We have been placing wins forth and back so it appears like it is my turn to the golden wreath, as I endorse the Irish and will follow the squares laying the lumber that is heavy on a public road favorite.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days before this Monday night affair, I see that the line has spiked a half-point about the preferred, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its currently offered in a solid -20 round the board whatsoever of the very best online sportsbooks.
Youre currently leaning to the Cardinals although doug, I love the Irish. Besides the place is it that you believe Louisville could hang with the boys out of South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yup at least and a successful win IMO, it said a lot about the Steelers and Titans direction. Let us move to football, will our recordings on this one and where the matches rely.
Recall those Thursday night matches Louisville used to perform against competitions? They held their engineered and own many upsets. These were fun games and the Cardinals were a thrilling club.
However, just like the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its counterfeit (in real life) proprietor, Louisville football last year was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and will be out win matches and to change the civilization. This will not happen right away as the ability level is down in theVille. This is a time for Louisville, a group that has the opportunity to begin taking steps in the perfect direction.
Ive read in which the Cards coaches have sped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and that I like Hassan Hall since the lead running back. The shield, well, which makes me more worried than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins. Why 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 inside their nest flying in this match. Scott Satterfield is now in the big leagues and he has a group coming off of a dismal album in which they went winless in ACC action last year. This rebuild is comparable to attempting to turn it and carrying a hot air balloon.
While this may eventually occur, the problem is that Louisville is facing a team that made it to the CFP this past 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 in the CFP semifinals. The offense clicked on all cylinders averaging 33 points per match over.
So, my question is, just how is a quarterback like traveling who is slow to discharge, supposed to gain some traction against a swarming shield that is Irish? Especially when he is working with a trainer and an offensive strategy that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, save me Im lost! I see no way, shape or form where Louisville will be able to keep pace and I am desperate for handicapping experience that is prodigious and the sage wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im pleased to see in your last sentence youre coming over to the bright side of sport gambling, or you are simply being the same wise a** you usually are. I will let the SBR readers that are making that is decided on by college football picks. I am the first to understand Louisville sucked and was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 final season.
Just like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons but coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that team COMPLETELY. A fresh mindset is brought by A new trainer and his team will be sold by Satterfield on building a statement this being a federal game. Louisville does need to hope they will not be taken by the Irish for granted and not have a lot of fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly with the gold and blue is ATS as a road favorite, and a mere 7-9-1 ATS, when dishing out more or 20 digits. This defense you said may improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, even whenever you dont/cant recruit like Bama or Clemson, it is going to take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was becoming a bit facetious because though you have an impressive handicapping resume, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this situation, because Louisville could be better compared to last year but Id submit that they are trained with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their document left by an inept coach like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that placing nearly 3 touchdowns on the road would be square biz for certain and Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy street chalk, but on occasion the people is correct, and in this instance they definitely are. Until next week when we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, let us see what happens on Monday when the Irish come ready to rumble in Louisville.
