Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and I will detract to dip our feet and render our college football picks on the Monday night game between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Louisville Cardinals.
It will almost certainly be the first and only time this year we do so, as the previous week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster compared to a regular-season game of NCAA soccer comprising one of the greatest clubs in the nation, plus a legendary soccer program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets begin the debate after my buddy Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while I endorsed the Titans. We have been swapping wins forth and back so it looks like its my turn for the golden wreath, as I will accompany all the squares laying the lumber that is heavy onto a public road favorite and heartily endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days ahead of this Monday night event, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point about the favorite, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is now offered in a solid -20 round the board at all of the very best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I enjoy the Irish but you are currently leaning onto the Cardinals. Other than the venue do you believe Louisville could hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: YesSwinger, IMO and at least a convincing win, it said a lot about both the Steelers and Titans management. Lets proceed to soccer, where the games rely and so will our recordings with this one.
Recall those Thursday night matches Louisville utilized to perform against opponents? They held their engineered and own several upsets. These were enjoyable games and also the Cardinals were an exciting club.
But 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 are out win games and to change the culture and worked miracles in Appalachian State. This will not happen right away as the ability level is down from theVille. However this is a significant time for Louisville, a team which has the chance to start taking steps in the perfect direction.
Ive read in which the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and I enjoy Hassan Hall as the lead running back. Than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins the protection, well, that makes me more worried. Please do tell youve got up your Irish.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing much since the Notre Dame defense will keep them cozy in their nest flying into this match. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and hes got a team coming from a dismal listing this past year where they went winless in ACC action. This rebuild is comparable to carrying a hot air balloon and seeking to turn it.
While this may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is confronting a group that made it into the CFP this past year and owned one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points over the normal season and going a perfect 12-0 till they met Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The offense clicked on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per match.
My query is, how will be a quarterback like traveling whos slow to discharge, supposed to gain some traction against a defense? Particularly when he is working with an offensive scheme and a new coach?
Please, Doug, save me I am lost! I see no way, shape or form where Louisville is going to have the ability to keep up and Im desperate to handicapping experience that is prodigious and your ancestral wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am glad to see in your last sentence youre coming on to the glowing side of sport betting, or youre simply being the same shrewd a** you usually are. Ill allow the SBR readers who are making college football selections decide on this. Im the first to understand Louisville was 1-11 ATS, although not just 2-10 and sucked last year.
Like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons, However, that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A coach brings a fresh attitude and his team will be sold by Satterfield on building a statement, this being a game. Louisville does need to hope never and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have a lot of fight.
Lets also consider, Brian Kelly with gold and all the blue is only 10-13-1 ATS as a road favorite, and a ATS when dishing out 20 or more digits. This defense you mentioned may improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, even whenever you dont/cant amuse like Clemson or even Bama, it will take some time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was becoming a bit facetious because although you have an impressive handicapping resume, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this case, because Louisville could be greater compared to last year but I would submit that they could be coached by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document left by an coach like Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that placing nearly three touchdowns on the street is square biz for sure along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy street chalk, but on occasion the general public is right, and also in this instance 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 ready to squint at Louisville.
