Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and that I shall detract to dip our toes and also leave our school football picks on the Monday night match between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Louisville Cardinals.
It will most likely be the first and only time this season we do so, as the last week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season sport of NCAA soccer comprising one of the best teams in the nation, and a legendary football program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us start the discussion after my friend Doug Upstone got the better of me last week with a bet about the Steelers while I supported the Titans. Weve been placing wins back and forth so it appears like its my turn to the wreath, as I will follow each of the squares laying the heavy lumber on a public road favorite and heartily endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days ahead of this Monday night event, I see the lineup has spiked a half-point about the preferred, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is presently offered at a solid -20 round the board whatsoever of the best internet sportsbooks.
Doug, I love the Irish but youre leaning within this season-opening clash onto the Cardinals. Other than the venue do you think Louisville will hang with the boys in South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yup , Swinger, at least and a triumph IMO, it said a great deal about the Steelers and Titans management. Lets proceed to soccer, in which the games rely and will our records with this one.
Recall those Thursday night matches Louisville used to play against competitions? They held their own and engineered upsets. These were fun games to see and the Cardinals were an club.
But just like the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its counterfeit (in real life) owner, Louisville soccer last year was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield are out win matches and to change the civilization and worked miracles. This wont happen immediately as the talent level is down from theVille. Yet , this is a moment for Louisville, a team which has the chance to start taking steps.
I have read where the Cards trainers have sped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and that I enjoy Hassan Hall because the direct running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season 23, the shield that makes me more worried. You have up your Irish, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing much flying in this game as the Notre Dame defense will keep them cozy in their nest. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and he has a team coming off of a dismal 2-10 record this past year, where they went winless in ACC action. This rebuild is akin to trying to turn it and taking a hot air balloon.
While that may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is facing a team 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 normal season and moving a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense was clicking on all cylinders as well, averaging 33 points per match over.
So, my question is, how can be a quarterback like traveling whos slow to release, designed to gain some traction against a swarming shield? Particularly when hes working with a new trainer and a completely new offensive scheme?
Please, Doug, save me I am lost! I see no way, shape or form in which Louisville will be able to keep pace with the Golden Domers and Im desperate to your brand new wisdom and handicapping experience that is prodigious!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am happy to see in your last sentence youre coming over to the glowing side of sport gambling, or youre simply being the exact shrewd a** you usually are. Ill let the SBR readers that are making that is decided on by college football picks. I am the first to realize Louisville completely sucked and was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 last year.
Like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons However, that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A fresh mindset is brought by A new trainer and this being a national match, Satterfield will market his staff on making a statement. Louisville does have to trust never and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have much fight.
Lets also consider, Brian Kelly using the blue and gold is ATS as a road favorite, also a mere 7-9-1 ATS if dishing out 20 or more digits. This defense you said may improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, whenever you dont/can not amuse like Bama or Clemson, it will take some time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was being a bit facetious because although you have an impressive handicapping resume, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this situation, because Louisville might be better but I would submit that they are coached with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their document left by an equally awkward coach like Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that placing nearly 3 touchdowns on the street would be square biz for sure and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy road chalk, but sometimes the people is correct, and in this situation they are. Until next week when we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, let us see what happens on Monday once the Irish come prepared to squint at Louisville.
