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 then that I shall deviate from our regularly scheduled plan 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 so, as the last week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster compared to some regular-season game of NCAA soccer featuring one of the greatest clubs in the nation, plus a legendary football program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets begin the discussion after my buddy Doug Upstone got the best of me last week with a bet about the Steelers while the Titans were endorsed by me. We have been swapping wins back and on so it looks like its my turn to get the wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will follow the squares laying the heavy lumber onto a public street favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days prior to this Monday night event, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point about the preferred, starting 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 enjoy the Irish but you are currently leaning onto the Cardinals within this clash. Other than the venue is it that you believe Louisville could hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yes IMO and a successful triumph, said a lot about the direction of both the Steelers and Titans. Let us move ahead to football, so will our records on this one and where the games rely.
Remember Louisville utilized to perform against big-name competitions? They held their own and engineered several upsets. These were fun games to watch and the Cardinals were a thrilling club.
However, for example the former Papa Johns Stadium and its counterfeit (in real life) owner, Louisville soccer last year was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield are out to change the civilization and win matches and worked miracles in Appalachian State. This will not happen immediately as the ability level is down in theVille. Yet , this is a significant moment for Louisville, a team which has the chance.
I have read in which the Cards coaches have sped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and I like Hassan Hall since the lead running back. The defense which makes me more nervous than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9. You have your Irish up please dont forget.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing as the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest, flying into this match. Scott Satterfield is currently in the big leagues and he has a group coming from a dismal album where they went winless in ACC action this past year. This rebuild is comparable to taking a hot air balloon and attempting to turn it into an F-22 Raptor.
While that may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is facing 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 regular season and moving a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The offense was clicking on all cylinders averaging 33 points per game over.
My issue is, just how is a quarterback like Pass who is slow to release, designed to get some traction against a swarming shield that is Irish? Particularly when he is working with an offensive scheme that is entirely new and a new coach?
Please, Doug, rescue me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville is going to have the ability to keep pace and Im desperate for your sage wisdom and prodigious handicapping expertise!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am glad to see in your last sentence you are coming over to the sunny side of sport betting, or you are simply being the exact identical wise a** you usually are. I will let the SBR readers that are making that is decided on by college football selections. I am the first to understand Louisville wasnt only 2-10, however, 1-11 ATS and fully pumped last season.
Like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons However, that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A fresh attitude is brought by A new trainer and his team will be sold by Satterfield on making a statement, this being a game. Louisville does need to trust not and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have much fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly with all the gold and blue is ATS as a road favorite, and a ATS, when dishing out more or 20 specimens. That defense you said might improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, when you dont/cant recruit like Bama or Clemson, it is going to take some time.
I used to be a bit facetious because though you have an handicapping restart , then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this case, you happen to be shooting blanks because Louisville might be better compared to last year but Id submit that they could be coached by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document rendered by an equally awkward trainer such as Petrino.
I know that placing nearly three touchdowns on the street is square biz for certain and Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy street chalk, but at times the people is correct, 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 when the Irish come prepared to rumble in Louisville.
