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 selections on the Monday night game between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and then that I will deviate from our regularly scheduled plan of NFL debate to dip our toes.
It will most likely be the first and only time this year we do so, as the previous week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season game of NCAA soccer comprising one of the best teams in the country, plus a mythical football program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us begin the debate after my buddy Doug Upstone got the better of me last week with a wager on the Steelers while I supported the Titans. We have been swapping wins forth and back so it looks like its my turn to get the gold wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will follow the squares laying the lumber that is heavy onto a public road favorite.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days prior to this Monday night event, I see the line has spiked a half-point about the favorite, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is currently offered at a solid -20 throughout the board whatsoever of the very best online sportsbooks.
I like the Irish but you are leaning within this season-opening clash onto the Cardinals. Besides the place is it that you think Louisville will hang with the boys out of South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yes IMO and at least a convincing triumph, it said a lot about the Steelers and Titans management. Lets proceed to real football, so will our recordings on this one and where the games rely.
Remember all those Thursday night games Louisville utilized to perform against opponents that are big-name? They more than held their engineered and own several upsets. These were enjoyable games and also the Cardinals were an exciting golf club.
But like the former Papa Johns Stadium and its counterfeit (in real life) owner, Louisville soccer last season was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and will be out to change the culture and win games. This will not happen right away as the ability level is down in theVille. This is a big time for Louisville, a group which has the opportunity.
Ive read in which the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and I like Hassan Hall since the lead running back. The protection, well, that makes me more nervous than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9. You have your Irish up, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing flying into this game since the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and hes got a group coming from a dismal 2-10 album in which they went winless in ACC action last year. This rebuild is akin to taking a hot air balloon and attempting to turn it in an F-22 Raptor.
While this may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is facing a group which made it into the CFP last year and owned one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points within the regular season and going a perfect 12-0 until they fulfilled Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per match.
My question is, how can be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to release, supposed to get some traction against a swarming Irish defense? Especially when he is working with a new coach and an offensive strategy?
Please, Doug, save me Im lost! I see no way, shape or form where Louisville will have the ability to keep pace with the Golden Domers and I am desperate for handicapping experience that is prodigious and the sage wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am glad to read in your last sentence youre coming over to the glowing side of sports gambling, or youre just being the exact identical wise a** you are. Ill allow the SBR readers who are making college football picks decide on this. Im the first to understand Louisville was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 and sucked final season.
Just like he gave up about the Atlanta Falcons However, coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that team COMPLETELY. A fresh attitude is brought by A new coach making a statement and with this being a national game, his team will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does have to trust not and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have a lot of fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly with the blue and gold is ATS as a road favorite, and a ATS, if dishing out 20 or more specimens. That defense you mentioned might improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, whenever you dont/can not amuse like Bama or even Clemson, it is going to take some time.
I was being a bit facetious because though you have an handicapping restart, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this case, because Louisville may be better than last year but Id submit that they could be trained by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their document left by an coach such as 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 betting the heavy road chalk, but sometimes the general public is right, and also in this situation they really are. Until once we get down on our NFL Game of the Week next week, let us see what happens on Monday when the Irish come ready to rumble in Louisville.
