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 Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and also I will deviate to dip our feet.
It will almost certainly be the first and only time this year we do this, as the last week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster in comparison to some regular-season sport of NCAA football featuring one of the top clubs in the nation, and a mythical football program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us start the debate after my buddy Doug Upstone got the better of me last week with a wager on the Steelers while I endorsed the Titans. We have been swapping wins back and forth so it appears like it is my turn for the gold wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will follow all the squares putting the thick lumber onto a public road favorite.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days prior to this Monday night event, I see the line has spiked a half-point about the preferred, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its now offered at a solid -20 round the board at all the best online sportsbooks.
I love the Irish but you are leaning to the Cardinals. Other than the place is it that you believe Louisville could hang with the boys out of South Bend?
Doug Upstone: YesSwinger, at least and a successful win IMO, it said a lot about the management of both the Steelers and Titans. Lets move ahead to real football, where the games rely and so can our documents on this one.
Remember those Thursday night games Louisville utilized to perform against opponents that are big-name? They held their own and engineered several upsets. These were enjoyable games and the Cardinals were an exciting club.
However, for example the former Papa Johns Stadium and its phony (in real life) proprietor, Louisville football last season was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out to change the culture and win games and worked wonders. This wont happen immediately as the talent level is down in theVille. However , this is a significant moment for Louisville, a group 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 that I like Hassan Hall as the lead running back. The shield which makes me more worried than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins. Please do tell why you have your Irish up.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing as the Notre Dame defense will keep them snug in their nest flying in this game. Scott Satterfield is presently in the big leagues and he has a group coming from a dismal album in which they went winless this past year. This rebuild is akin to taking a hot air balloon and trying to turn it.
While this may eventually occur, the issue is that Louisville is confronting a team which made it to the CFP last year and owned only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points within the normal season and going a perfect 12-0 until they fulfilled Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense was clicking on all cylinders also, averaging 33 points per game over.
My question is, just how can be a quarterback like Pass who is slow to discharge, supposed to get some traction against a swarming defense that is Irish? Especially when he is working with a new trainer and an offensive strategy?
Please, Doug, rescue me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville will have the ability to keep up with the Golden Domers and Im desperate to handicapping experience that is prodigious and your ancestral wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am happy to see in your last sentence you are coming around to the glowing side of sport betting, or you are simply being the exact shrewd a** you usually are. I will let the SBR readers who are currently making college football selections decide on that. I am the first to understand Louisville fully pumped and was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 final season.
But that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons. A fresh mindset is brought by A new coach on building a statement, and this being a match, his staff will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does have to hope never and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have much fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly with gold and the blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a ATS if dishing out more or 20 specimens. This defense you said might improve as the season progresses but substituting five starters, when you dont/cant recruit like Bama or Clemson, it is going to take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was a bit facetious because although you have an handicapping that was impressive resume, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this instance, because Louisville might be greater but I would submit that they could be trained with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document left by an trainer such as Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that laying nearly 3 touchdowns on the street is square biz for certain along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy road chalk, but at times the public is correct, and also in this case they definitely are. Until next week once we get down on our NFL Game of the Week, let us see what happens on Monday night once the Irish come prepared to rumble in Louisville.
