Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and I will detract to dip our feet into uncharted waters and then render our school football selections.
It will most likely be the very first and only time this year we do this, as the last week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season game of NCAA soccer comprising one of the very best teams in the country, and a mythical 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 the Titans were backed by me. Weve been placing wins on and back so it appears like its my turn to the gold wreath, as I will accompany the squares laying the lumber that is heavy onto a public road favorite and endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days before the Monday night affair, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point about the favorite, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is currently offered in a solid -20 round the board whatsoever of the very best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I love the Irish but youre leaning in this season-opening clash to the Cardinals. Other than the place, why is it that you believe Louisville can hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: YesSwinger, IMO and a successful win, it said a lot about the direction of the Steelers and Titans. Let us proceed to real soccer, where the games count and so will our recordings on this one.
Recall those Thursday night games Louisville used to play against competitions that are big-name? They held their own and engineered several upsets. These were fun games to watch and the Cardinals were a thrilling club.
However, such as the former Papa Johns Stadium and its counterfeit (in real life) owner, Louisville football last year was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and will be out win matches and to change the culture. This wont happen immediately as the ability level is down in theVille. This is a big time for Louisville, a group that has the opportunity.
I have read in which the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and I enjoy Hassan Hall since the lead running back. Than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season 23, the shield, well, that makes me more worried. Please do tell why you have your Irish up.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing as the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest, flying in this game. Scott Satterfield is now in the big leagues and he has a team coming from a dismal album this past year, where they went winless in ACC action. This rebuild is comparable to carrying a hot air balloon and seeking to turn it.
While this may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is confronting a group 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 over the normal season and moving a perfect 12-0 till they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The offense was clicking on all cylinders averaging 33 points per match over.
My issue is, just how can be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to discharge, designed to gain some traction against a swarming shield? Especially when hes working with a new trainer and an offensive strategy?
Please, Doug, rescue me I am lost! I see no way, shape or form where Louisville is going to be able to keep pace with the Golden Domers and I am desperate to handicapping expertise that is prodigious and the ancestral wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im pleased to read in your last sentence you are coming over to the bright side of sports gambling, or youre just being the identical shrewd a** you usually are. Ill allow the SBR readers who are making that is decided on by school football selections. Im the first to understand Louisville completely sucked and was 1-11 ATS, although not just 2-10 last season.
However, that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, just like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons. A fresh attitude is brought by A coach and with this being a match, Satterfield will market his team. Louisville does have to hope they will not be taken by the Irish for granted and never have much fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly with all the gold and blue is only 10-13-1 ATS as a road favorite, also a ATS when dishing out 20 or more digits. This defense you mentioned might improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, even whenever you dont/can not recruit like Bama or Clemson, it will take some time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was becoming a bit facetious because though youve got an handicapping resume, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this circumstance, because Louisville could be better than last year but Id submit that they could be trained by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable record rendered by an awkward coach such as Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that laying nearly three touchdowns on the street would be square biz for certain along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy road chalk, but at times the public is right, and in this situation they certainly are. Until once we get back 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.
