Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and leave our college football picks on the Monday night game between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and then that I shall deviate to dip our feet.
It will almost certainly be the first and only time this season we do this, as the previous week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season game of NCAA football featuring one of the very best teams in the country, and a legendary football program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us start the discussion after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week while the Titans were supported by me. We have been placing wins forth and back so it appears like it is my turn to get the golden wreath, as I endorse the Irish and will accompany the squares laying the lumber that is heavy on a public street favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds almost six days prior to this Monday night event, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point about the favorite, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its currently offered in a solid -20 across the board at all the very best internet sportsbooks.
I enjoy the Irish but you are leaning within this season-opening clash on the Cardinals. Aside from the venue, why do you think Louisville could hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yup a successful win and IMO, said a lot about both the Steelers and Titans management. Lets move to real soccer, will our records with this one and in which the matches rely.
Remember those Thursday night matches Louisville utilized to play against opponents? They more than held their own and engineered upsets. These were fun games to see and also the Cardinals were a thrilling golf club.
However, like the former Papa Johns Stadium and its fake (in real life) proprietor, Louisville soccer last year was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked miracles and are out to alter the civilization and win games. This wont happen right away as the ability level is down in theVille. Yet , this is a time for Louisville, a group that has the opportunity.
Ive read where the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and that I like Hassan Hall since the direct running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins the shield, well, which makes me more worried. Please do tell why youve got up your Irish.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals wont be doing much since the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest flying in this game. Scott Satterfield is in the big leagues and hes got a team last year, where they went winless in ACC action coming from a dismal album. This rebuild is akin to attempting to turn it and taking a hot air balloon.
While that may eventually happen, the problem is that Louisville is confronting a team that made it into the CFP last year and owned only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points within the regular season and moving a perfect 12-0 till they fulfilled Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per match.
So, my query is, how is a quarterback like Pass whos slow to release, supposed to obtain some traction against a swarming defense? Particularly when hes working with an entirely new offensive strategy and a new trainer?
Please, Doug, save me I am lost! I see no way, shape or form where Louisville is going to have the ability to keep up with this Golden Domers and Im desperate for handicapping experience and the brand new wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am pleased to read in your last sentence you are coming on to the bright side of sports betting, or you are simply being the same wise a** you usually are. I will allow the SBR readers that are making that is decided on by college football picks. I am the first to realize Louisville fully pumped and was 1-11 ATS, although not only 2-10 last year.
Like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons but coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that staff COMPLETELY. A new coach brings a new attitude on building a statement, and this being a national match, his staff will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does have to trust they will not be taken by the Irish and not have much fight.
Let us also think about, Brian Kelly using the gold and blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a ATS when dishing out more or 20 specimens. That defense you mentioned might improve as the season progresses but substituting five starters, if you dont/can not amuse like Bama or even Clemson, it will take some time.
I was a bit facetious because though youve got an handicapping that was impressive resume, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this instance, because Louisville could be greater but I would submit that they could be trained by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document rendered by an trainer such as Petrino, you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that laying nearly 3 touchdowns on the road is square biz for certain along with Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy road chalk, but on occasion the public is correct, and in this case they surely are. Until once we get back on our NFL Game of the Week, next week, let us see what happens on Monday night when the Irish come prepared to rumble in Louisville.
