Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and that I will deviate to dip our feet into uncharted waters and then leave our college football selections.
It will probably be the very first and only time this season we do so, as the previous week of display NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season sport of NCAA football featuring one of the very best teams in the country, plus a legendary 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 while I backed the Titans. We have been swapping wins forth and back so it appears like it is my turn to get the golden wreath, as I will follow the squares putting the thick lumber on a public street favorite and endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days prior to this Monday night event, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point about the favorite, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its currently offered at a solid -20 throughout the board at all the best online sportsbooks.
I like the Irish but you are leaning within this battle onto the Cardinals. Aside from the place is it that you believe Louisville can hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yup IMO and a convincing triumph, it said a great deal about the Steelers and Titans management. Lets proceed to real soccer, where the matches rely and so will our recordings with this one.
Recall all those Thursday night games Louisville used to perform against big-name opponents? They more than held their engineered and own upsets. These were enjoyable games to see and the Cardinals were an exciting golf club.
But just like the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its phony (in real life) proprietor, Louisville soccer last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders in Appalachian State and will be out to alter the civilization and win matches. This will not happen right away as the ability level is down in theVille. This is a significant time for Louisville, a team which has the chance.
I have read where the Cards coaches have sped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and that I enjoy Hassan Hall as the direct running back. Than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season 23, the shield that makes me more nervous. You have up your Irish, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing much since the Notre Dame defense will keep them snug in their nest flying in this game. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and hes got a team coming off of a dismal album where they went winless this past year. This rebuild is comparable to carrying a hot air balloon and trying to turn it.
While this may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is confronting a group which made it into the CFP last year and possessed only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, equaling only 17.2 points over the normal season and moving a perfect 12-0 till they fulfilled Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The offense clicked on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per match.
So, my question is, how can be a quarterback like traveling whos slow to discharge, designed to obtain any traction against a defense? Particularly when hes working with a coach and an offensive strategy that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, save me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville will have the ability to keep pace with this Golden Domers and I am desperate for handicapping experience that is prodigious and the brand new wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am glad to read in your last sentence you are coming on to the glowing side of sports gambling, or you are simply being the same wise a** you usually are. Ill let the SBR readers who are making college football selections decide on that. Im the first to realize Louisville fully pumped and was 1-11 ATS, although not just 2-10 last year.
Just like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons but coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that staff COMPLETELY. A fresh attitude is brought by A coach and his team will be sold by Satterfield on building a statement, this being a national game. Louisville does need to hope the Irish will take them and not have much fight.
Let us 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 specimens. This defense you said might improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, even if you dont/cant recruit like Bama or even Clemson, it will take time.
I was being a bit facetious because although you have an handicapping resume, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this instance, because Louisville could be greater but Id submit that they are trained by a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their record left by an trainer like Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that laying nearly 3 touchdowns on the road is square biz for sure along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy street chalk, but sometimes the general public is right, and also in this situation they are. Until once we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, next week, lets see what happens on Monday once the Irish come ready to rumble in Louisville.
