Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and leave 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 first and only time this season we do so, as the last week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster compared to a regular-season game of NCAA soccer comprising one of the top teams in the country, and a mythical soccer program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets 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 placing wins forth and back so it appears like its my turn to get the gold wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will accompany each of the squares putting the thick lumber on a public street favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days prior to the Monday night event, I see the lineup has spiked a half-point about the preferred, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is presently offered at a solid -20 round the board whatsoever of the best online sportsbooks.
Youre currently leaning on the Cardinals although doug, I like the Irish. Apart from the venue is it that you think Louisville could hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yes a win and at least IMO, it said a great deal about the direction of the Steelers and Titans. Lets move ahead to soccer, will our recordings on this one and where the matches rely.
Recall all those Thursday night games Louisville utilized to perform against competitions that are big-name? They held their engineered and own many upsets. These were enjoyable games to see and also the Cardinals were an golf club.
However, like the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its fake (in real life) owner, Louisville soccer last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out to change the civilization and win games and worked wonders. This wont happen right away as the ability level is down in theVille. This is a moment for Louisville, a team which has the opportunity to begin taking steps in the perfect direction.
Ive read in which the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and I like Hassan Hall as the direct running back. The defense, well, which makes me more nervous than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9. Please do tell why youve got your Irish up.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing much flying in this match as the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest. Scott Satterfield is presently in the big leagues and he has a group coming from a dismal 2-10 album in which they went winless in ACC action this past year. This rebuild is comparable to attempting to turn it into an F-22 Raptor and taking a hot air balloon.
While that may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is facing a group that made it into the CFP last year and possessed 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 until they met Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders as well, averaging over 33 points per game.
So, my issue is, how will be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to release, supposed to obtain any traction against a swarming Irish shield? Particularly when he is working with a coach and an offensive strategy that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, save me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville will have the ability to keep pace and Im desperate for handicapping expertise that is prodigious and the ancestral wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am glad to read in your last sentence youre coming over to the sunny side of sport betting, or youre simply being the same wise a** you usually are. Ill allow the SBR readers that are currently making college football picks decide on that. I am the first to realize Louisville fully pumped and was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 last season.
Like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons However, that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A new attitude is brought by A coach on making a statement and with this being a federal game, his team will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does need to hope not and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have a lot of fight.
Lets also consider, Brian Kelly with gold and the blue is ATS as a road favorite, and a ATS if dishing out more or 20 digits. That defense you mentioned might improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, even whenever you dont/can not recruit like Bama or even Clemson, it will take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was being a bit facetious because though youve got an impressive handicapping resume, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this situation, you happen to be shooting, since Louisville might be greater but I would submit that they could be coached with a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their record made by an equally incompetent trainer such as Petrino.
I know that placing nearly three touchdowns on the street would be square biz for sure and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy road chalk, but on occasion the general public is right, and in this case they definitely are. Until once we get down on our NFL Game of the Week next week, lets see what happens on Monday night once the Irish come ready to squint at Louisville.
