Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and render our college football picks and then that I will detract from our regularly scheduled program of NFL debate to dip our feet.
It will probably be the first and only time this season we do this, as the previous week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster compared to some regular-season game of NCAA football featuring one of the greatest teams in the country, plus a mythical soccer program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us start the debate after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while the Titans were endorsed by me. We have been swapping wins on and back so it looks like it is my turn to get the gold wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will accompany each of the squares laying the heavy lumber on a public road favorite.
After reviewing the school football odds nearly six days ahead of this Monday night event, I see the lineup has spiked a half-point on the favorite, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is presently offered at a solid -20 across the board whatsoever of the very best online sportsbooks.
You are currently leaning to the Cardinals although doug, I enjoy the Irish. Besides the venue, why do you believe Louisville could hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yes, Swinger, IMO and at least a convincing win, said a lot about the management of the Steelers and Titans. Let us proceed to soccer, will our recordings with this one and where the games count.
Recall Louisville used to perform against big-name opponents? They held their own and engineered upsets. These were fun games and also the Cardinals were a thrilling club.
However, just for example the former Papa Johns Stadium and its phony (in real life) owner, Louisville soccer last season was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out to change the civilization and win games and worked wonders in Appalachian State. This wont happen immediately as the talent level is down in theVille. Yet this is a significant moment for Louisville, a team which has the chance to begin taking steps in the right direction.
I have read where the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and that I enjoy Hassan Hall since the lead running back. The protection which makes me more nervous than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins. Why you have up your Irish, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing much as the Notre Dame defense will keep them snug in their nest, flying in this game. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and hes got a team coming from a dismal album where they went winless in ACC activity last year. This rebuild is akin to carrying a hot air balloon and trying to turn it.
While that may eventually occur, the problem is that Louisville is confronting a group that made it to the CFP last year and owned only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points over the regular season and going a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense was clicking on all cylinders averaging 33 points per game over.
My question is, how can be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to discharge, supposed to obtain some traction against a defense that is Irish? Especially when hes working with a completely new offensive scheme and a trainer?
Please, Doug, rescue me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville is going to be able to keep pace with this Golden Domers and Im desperate for your ancestral wisdom and prodigious handicapping experience!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im glad to read in your last sentence you are coming over to the sunny side of sports gambling, or you are simply being the exact shrewd a** you usually are. I will let the SBR readers that are making college football picks decide on that. I am the first to understand Louisville wasnt just 2-10, however 1-11 ATS and sucked last year.
Just like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons but coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that staff COMPLETELY. A new trainer brings a fresh mindset on creating a statement and this being a national match, his staff will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does have to hope not and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have a lot of fight.
Lets also consider, Brian Kelly with gold and the blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a ATS, if dishing out more or 20 specimens. This defense you said may improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, even when you dont/can not recruit like Bama or even Clemson, it is going to 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 instance, you happen to be shooting blanks because Louisville might be greater than last year but Id submit that they could be trained by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document rendered by an equally inept trainer like Petrino.
I know that placing nearly three touchdowns on the street is square biz for certain along with 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 once we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, let us see what happens on Monday night when the Irish come ready to rumble in Louisville.
