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 picks and also I will deviate to dip our feet into uncharted waters.
It will most likely be the very first and only time this season we do this, as the previous week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season game of NCAA football featuring one of the greatest clubs in the country, plus a mythical soccer program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets begin the discussion after my buddy Doug Upstone got the better of me last week with a bet on the Steelers while I backed the Titans. We have been swapping wins forth and back so it looks like it is my turn for the golden wreath, as I will follow the squares putting the thick lumber on a street favorite and heartily endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the school football odds almost six days ahead of the Monday night event, I see that the line has spiked a half-point about the preferred, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its currently offered at a solid -20 across the board whatsoever the very best internet sportsbooks.
Youre currently leaning onto the Cardinals although doug, I like the Irish. Apart from the venue is it that you believe Louisville will hang with the boys out of South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yes a convincing win and IMO, it said a great deal about the direction of both the Steelers and Titans. Lets proceed to real soccer, in which the matches rely and will our recordings on this one.
Remember those Thursday night games Louisville used to perform against competitions? They more than held their engineered and own several upsets. These were fun games and the Cardinals were an exciting club.
However, for example 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 worked wonders in Appalachian State and are out to change the culture and win matches. This will not happen right away as the talent level is down from theVille. This is a time for Louisville, a group that has the opportunity to begin taking steps in the right direction.
Ive read in which the Cards coaches have popped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and that I enjoy Hassan Hall as the lead running back. Than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 the defense that makes me more worried. Why you have up your Irish please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing flying in this game as the Notre Dame defense will keep them cozy in their nest. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and hes got a group coming off of a dismal 2-10 album in which they went winless this past year. This rebuild is comparable to attempting to turn it in an F-22 Raptor and carrying a hot air balloon.
While this may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is confronting a group that made it to the CFP last year and possessed only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points over the regular season and going a perfect 12-0 till they fulfilled Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The offense clicked on all cylinders averaging 33 points per match over.
My question is, how is a quarterback like Pass whos slow to release, designed to gain any traction against a defense that is Irish? Especially when he is working with an offensive strategy that is entirely new and a new coach?
Please, Doug, rescue me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville is going to have the ability to keep up and Im desperate for handicapping expertise that is prodigious and the sage wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im pleased to see in your last sentence youre coming around to the sunny side of sports gambling, or you are just being the same wise a** you usually are. Ill let the SBR readers who are making school football selections decide on this. Im the first to realize Louisville sucked and was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 final season.
But that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, like he gave up to the Atlanta Falcons. A new trainer brings a new mindset on creating a statement, and this being a federal game, his team will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does need to hope the Irish will take them for granted and never have a lot of fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly with all the gold and blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a mere 7-9-1 ATS, if dishing out more or 20 specimens. This defense you mentioned may improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, even if you dont/cant recruit like Clemson or Bama, it will take some time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was a bit facetious because though you have an impressive handicapping restart, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this circumstance, because Louisville could be better compared to last year but I would submit that they could be coached with a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their record rendered by an coach like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that placing nearly three touchdowns on the road would be square biz for certain and Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy road chalk, but on occasion the general public is correct, and also in this instance they definitely are. Until once we get down on our NFL Game of the Week next week, lets see what happens on Monday once the Irish come prepared to squint at Louisville.
