Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and I will deviate from our regularly scheduled plan of NFL debate to dip our feet and then render our college football picks.
It will most likely be the first and only time this year we do this, as the last week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster compared to a regular-season sport of NCAA football featuring one of the greatest clubs in the country, plus a mythical football program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets begin the discussion after my friend Doug Upstone got the better of me last week while I supported the Titans. Weve been placing wins forth and back so it looks like its my turn to the golden wreath, as I will accompany the squares laying the lumber on a road favorite and endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the school football odds almost six days before this Monday night event, I see that the line has spiked a half-point on the favorite, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its currently offered at a solid -20 across the board whatsoever of the best online sportsbooks.
I like the Irish but you are leaning in this battle to the Cardinals. Besides the venue, why is it that you think Louisville will hang with the boys in South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yup a triumph and IMO, said a lot about the Steelers and Titans management. Lets move to football, where the matches count and will our recordings on this one.
Recall those Thursday night games Louisville utilized to play against competitions that are big-name? They held their engineered and own upsets. These were fun games to see and also the Cardinals were a thrilling golf club.
But for example the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its fake (in real life) owner, Louisville football last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and will be out to alter the culture and win matches. This will not happen right away as the ability level is down in theVille. However this is a significant moment for Louisville, a team that has the opportunity to start taking actions in the right direction.
Ive read in which the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and I enjoy Hassan Hall since the lead running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season 23, the shield, well, that makes me more worried. You have up your Irish please dont forget.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing as the Notre Dame defense will keep them snug in their nest flying into this match. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and he has a group coming off of a dismal 2-10 album last year in which they went winless in ACC activity. This rebuild is comparable to taking a hot air balloon and seeking to turn it.
While this may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is facing a team that made it into the CFP this past year and owned only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points within the normal season and moving a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The offense was clicking on all cylinders as well, averaging over 33 points per match.
My query is, just how will be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to release, designed to gain any traction against a swarming shield that is Irish? Particularly when hes working with a new trainer and an offensive strategy that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, rescue me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville is going to have the ability to keep up with this Golden Domers and Im desperate for prodigious handicapping experience and your sage wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am happy to read in your last sentence you are coming around to the bright side of sports gambling, or you are just being the identical wise a** you are. Ill allow the SBR readers that are making school football selections decide on this. I am the first to understand Louisville was, however 1-11 ATS and completely sucked last season.
But that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, just like he composed to the Atlanta Falcons. A new attitude is brought by A trainer and with this being a game, Satterfield will sell his team. Louisville does have to trust the Irish will take them and never have a lot of fight.
Lets also consider, Brian Kelly using gold and all the blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a ATS, when dishing out more or 20 digits. This defense you said might improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, even whenever you dont/can not recruit 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 resume, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this situation, because Louisville may be better compared to last season but I would submit that they are coached with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their document left by an trainer such as Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know 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 road chalk, but sometimes the public is correct, and in this case they certainly 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 prepared to squint at Louisville.
