Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and render our school football selections on the Monday night match between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Louisville Cardinals and I shall detract to dip our feet.
It will almost certainly be the very first and only time this year we do so, as the previous week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season game of NCAA soccer featuring one of the very best teams in the country, and a legendary football program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets begin the discussion after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while the Titans were supported by me. We have been swapping wins on and back so it looks like it is my turn to the golden wreath, as I endorse the Irish and will accompany the squares putting the thick lumber on a street favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days before the Monday night affair, I see that the line has spiked a half-point on the preferred, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is currently offered in a solid -20 round the board whatsoever the best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I enjoy the Irish but youre currently leaning on the Cardinals. Aside from the place do you believe Louisville can hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yes, Swinger, a successful triumph and at least IMO, said a lot about the direction of both the Steelers and Titans. Let us move ahead to real soccer, so will our recordings with this one and where the matches rely.
Remember Louisville utilized to perform against big-name opponents? They held their own and engineered upsets. These were fun games and the Cardinals were a thrilling club.
However, such as the former Papa Johns Stadium and its phony (in real life) proprietor, Louisville football last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out win matches and to change the culture and worked wonders. This wont happen right away as the talent level is down from theVille. This is a time for Louisville, a group which has the chance.
I have read in which the Cards trainers have sped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and I enjoy Hassan Hall because the lead running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins the shield that makes me more worried. Why you have your Irish up, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing much flying in this game since the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest. Scott Satterfield is currently in the big leagues and he has a team this past year, where they went winless coming off of a dismal record. This rebuild is comparable to carrying a hot air balloon and seeking to turn it.
While that may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is facing a team which made it into the CFP last year and possessed one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points within the regular season and moving a perfect 12-0 until they fulfilled Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per game.
My query is, just how is a quarterback like traveling whos slow to discharge, designed to get some traction against a swarming Irish defense? Especially when hes working with an offensive strategy that is entirely new and a coach?
Please, Doug, rescue me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville is going to be able to keep pace and I am desperate to your brand new wisdom and handicapping expertise that is prodigious!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am pleased to read in your last sentence you are coming around to the glowing side of sport betting, or youre simply being the same wise a** you usually are. I will let the SBR readers who are currently making this is decided on by college football picks. Im the first to realize Louisville completely sucked and was, however, 1-11 ATS last season.
Like he gave up about the Atlanta Falcons but that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A new attitude is brought by A coach and his staff will be sold by Satterfield on creating a statement, this being a game. Louisville does have to hope not and the Irish will take them for granted have a lot of fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly using gold and the blue is ATS as a road favorite, and a ATS, when dishing out more or 20 digits. That defense you said might improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, if you dont/can not amuse like Bama or even Clemson, it will take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was being a bit facetious because although youve got an handicapping restart, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this situation, because Louisville could be greater but Id submit that they could be trained by a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their deplorable document left by an equally awkward trainer like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that laying nearly 3 touchdowns on the street is square biz for certain and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy street chalk, but sometimes the general public is right, and also in this case they definitely are. Until when we get down on our NFL Game of the Week, next week, let us see what happens on Monday when the Irish come prepared to squint at Louisville.
