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 selections on the Monday night game between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Louisville Cardinals and then I shall detract from our regularly scheduled plan of NFL debate to dip our toes into uncharted waters.
It will probably be the first and only time this year we do this, as the previous week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to some regular-season game of NCAA football featuring one of the top clubs in the nation, and a mythical soccer program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us begin the debate after my buddy Doug Upstone got the better of me last week with a wager on the Steelers while the Titans were backed by me. We have been placing wins back and on so it looks like it is my turn for the wreath, as I will accompany each of the squares laying the lumber that is heavy on a public road favorite and heartily endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the college football odds almost six days prior to this Monday night event, I see the line has spiked a half-point on the favorite, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is now offered at a solid -20 round the board at all of the very best online sportsbooks.
I like the Irish but youre currently leaning within this clash on the Cardinals. Apart from the venue is it that you believe Louisville could hang with the boys from South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yes a triumph and IMO, said a lot about both the Steelers and Titans direction. Let us move to football, in which the games count and so will our records on this one.
Remember Louisville used to perform against competitions that are big-name? They held their engineered and own several upsets. These were fun games to see and the Cardinals were an exciting club.
But for example the former Papa Johns Stadium and its fake (in real life) proprietor, Louisville soccer last year was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and are out win matches and to alter the civilization. This wont occur right away as the ability level is down in theVille. This is a huge moment for Louisville, a team that has the chance.
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 because the direct running back. The protection that makes me more worried than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9. Why you have up your Irish please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing since the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest, flying in this match. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and he has a team coming off of a dismal 2-10 album this past year, where they went winless. This rebuild is comparable to carrying a hot air balloon and seeking to turn it in an F-22 Raptor.
While that may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is facing a team that made it into the CFP this past year and possessed only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points within the normal season and moving a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders also, averaging 33 points per match over.
My query is, how can be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to discharge, supposed to obtain some traction from a shield that is Irish? Especially when he is working with a coach and an offensive strategy that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, rescue me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville will have the ability to keep up and I am desperate for the brand new wisdom and prodigious handicapping experience!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am happy to read in the last sentence you are coming over to the sunny side of sports betting, or you are simply being the exact identical shrewd a** you usually are. Ill let the SBR readers that are currently making that is decided on by school football picks. I am the first to understand Louisville was 1-11 ATS, although not just 2-10 and fully pumped last year.
Just like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons, However, that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A trainer brings a new attitude on making a statement, and with this being a federal game, his team will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does have to hope not and the Irish will take them for granted have much fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly with all the blue and gold is ATS as a road favorite, also when dishing out 20 or more specimens, a ATS. That defense you said might improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, even when you dont/can not amuse like Bama or even Clemson, it is going to take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was becoming a bit facetious because although you have an handicapping that was impressive restart, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this circumstance, because Louisville might be greater but Id submit that they are trained by a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their record rendered by an equally awkward coach such as Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that laying nearly three touchdowns on the road is square biz for certain along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy road chalk, but sometimes the public is right, and also in this situation they are. Until next week when we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, lets see what happens on Monday night when the Irish come prepared to squint at Louisville.
