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 picks on the Monday night game between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and then also that I will deviate to dip our toes into uncharted waters.
It will most likely be the first and only time this season we do this, as the last week of exhibition NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster compared to some regular-season game of NCAA soccer featuring one of the top clubs in the nation, and a legendary football program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us start the debate after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while I supported the Titans. Weve been swapping wins back and forth so it appears like it is my turn to the wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will follow all the squares laying the lumber that is heavy onto a road favorite.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days ahead of this Monday night affair, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point on the preferred, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is presently offered in a solid -20 throughout the board whatsoever the best internet sportsbooks.
I like the Irish but youre leaning in this battle to the Cardinals. Other than the venue, why is it that you believe Louisville can hang with the boys from South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yes at least and a triumph IMO, it said a great deal about the management of the Steelers and Titans. Lets move to real soccer, will our records with this one and in which the games count.
Remember those Thursday night matches Louisville utilized to perform against opponents? They held their engineered and own several upsets. These were enjoyable games to watch and the Cardinals were a thrilling golf club.
However, such as the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its phony (in real life) owner, Louisville soccer last year was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out win games and to change the culture and worked wonders in Appalachian State. This wont happen immediately as the talent level is down from theVille. However , this is a major moment for Louisville, a team which has the opportunity to begin taking actions.
I have read in which the Cards coaches have popped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (great 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 for season 23, the protection that makes me more worried. Why you have your Irish up please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing much flying into this game since the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and he has a group last year, where they went winless coming from a dismal album. This rebuild is akin to taking a hot air balloon and seeking to turn it.
While this may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is facing a group that made it to the CFP last year and possessed only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points within the regular season and moving a perfect 12-0 until they fulfilled Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The offense clicked on all cylinders also, averaging 33 points per match over.
So, my question is, how is a quarterback like Pass whos slow to discharge, designed to get any traction against a swarming shield? Particularly when he is working with an offensive scheme that is entirely new and a new coach?
Please, Doug, rescue me Im lost! I see no way, shape or form where Louisville is going to have the ability to keep pace and Im desperate to handicapping experience that is prodigious and the brand new wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am pleased to see in your last sentence youre coming over to the glowing side of sports betting, or youre simply being the same wise a** you are. Ill allow the SBR readers that are currently making that is decided on by school football selections. Im the first to realize Louisville fully pumped and was 1-11 ATS, although not just 2-10 final season.
Like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons However, coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that staff COMPLETELY. A new attitude is brought by A coach and this being a federal match, Satterfield will sell his staff on building a statement. Louisville does have to hope never and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have much fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly with gold and the blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a mere 7-9-1 ATS, when dishing out more or 20 digits. This defense you mentioned might improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, even when you dont/cant amuse like Clemson or Bama, it is going to take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was becoming a bit facetious because although youve got an impressive handicapping restart, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this case, because Louisville might be better compared to last year but Id submit that they are coached with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document left by an trainer like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that laying 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 public is right, and also in this situation they are. Until when we get down on our NFL Game of the Week next week, let us see what happens on Monday night when the Irish come ready to squint at Louisville.
