Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and render our school football picks and then also that I shall deviate to dip our feet into uncharted waters.
It will almost certainly be the first and only time this year we do so, as the last week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster compared to some regular-season sport of NCAA football comprising one of the very best clubs in the country, plus a legendary soccer program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets start the discussion after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week with a wager on the Steelers while I backed the Titans. Weve been placing wins forth and back so it appears like its my turn to the wreath, as I endorse the Irish and will follow the squares laying the lumber that is heavy on a road favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days ahead of the Monday night affair, I see that the line has spiked a half-point on the preferred, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its presently offered at a solid -20 across the board whatsoever the best online sportsbooks.
You are currently leaning onto the Cardinals although I enjoy the Irish. Apart from the venue, why is it that you believe Louisville could hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: YesSwinger, a successful win and IMO, it said a lot about the management of the Steelers and Titans. Lets move to real football, where the games rely and so can our documents on this one.
Recall Louisville used to play against big-name opponents? They held their own and engineered several upsets. These were enjoyable games to watch and also the Cardinals were an golf club.
But such as the former Papa Johns Stadium and its fake (in real life) proprietor, Louisville football last year was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out to change the civilization and win games and worked wonders. This wont happen right away as the talent level is down in theVille. Yet , this is a major time for Louisville, a group that has the chance to start taking steps in the ideal direction.
I have read in which the Cards trainers have sped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and that I like Hassan Hall because the lead running back. The protection that makes me more worried than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins. Why you have your Irish up, please dont forget.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing since the Notre Dame defense will keep them snug inside their nest flying into this game. Scott Satterfield is presently in the big leagues and hes got a group coming off of a dismal record last year where they went winless. This rebuild is akin to trying to turn it and getting a hot air balloon.
While that may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is facing a team which made it into the CFP this past year and possessed 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 was clicking on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per match.
So, my query is, how will be a quarterback like traveling whos slow to release, supposed to obtain some traction against a defense? Particularly when hes working with an offensive scheme and a new trainer?
Please, Doug, rescue me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville will be able to keep pace and I am desperate for your ancestral wisdom and handicapping expertise that is prodigious!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am pleased to read in your last sentence you are coming on to the glowing side of sport betting, or you are just being the identical shrewd a** you are. I will allow the SBR readers that are making this is decided on by school football selections. I am the first to understand Louisville was 1-11 ATS, although not just 2-10 and completely sucked last year.
However, that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons. A new attitude is brought by A trainer and his staff will be sold by Satterfield on making a statement this being a federal match. Louisville does need to trust they will not be taken by the Irish for granted and never have a lot of fight.
Lets also think about, Brian Kelly using the gold and blue is just 10-13-1 ATS as a road favorite, also a mere 7-9-1 ATS when dishing out more or 20 specimens. That defense you mentioned could improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, if you dont/cant recruit like Bama or even Clemson, it will take some time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was a bit facetious because although youve got an handicapping that was impressive restart, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this scenario, because Louisville might be greater compared to last year but Id submit that they are coached by a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their deplorable record left by an equally inept trainer like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that placing nearly three touchdowns on the road is square biz for sure along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy road chalk, but at times the people is correct, and also in this instance they certainly are. Until when we get down on our NFL Game of the Week next week, let us see what happens on Monday night once the Irish come ready to squint at Louisville.
