Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and leave our school football selections on the Monday night game between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and then I will deviate to dip our feet.
It will probably be the very first and only time this season we do this, as the previous week of display NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season sport of NCAA soccer comprising one of the greatest clubs in the country, and a legendary soccer program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, let us begin the discussion after my friend Doug Upstone got the better of me last week while the Titans were backed by me. We have been placing wins back and forth so it appears like it is my turn to the wreath, as I endorse the Irish and will accompany the squares laying the lumber onto a public road favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds almost six days ahead of this Monday night event, I see that the lineup has spiked a half-point on the preferred, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its now offered at a solid -20 throughout the board whatsoever the best internet sportsbooks.
Youre currently leaning on the Cardinals within this season-opening clash although I enjoy the Irish. Other than the venue, why is it that you think Louisville can hang with the boys out of South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yup Swinger, at least and a convincing triumph IMO, said a great deal about the Steelers and Titans direction. Lets move to real soccer, will our recordings on this one and where the matches rely.
Recall Louisville utilized to play against big-name opponents? They held their own and engineered several upsets. These were fun games and also the Cardinals were an exciting golf club.
However, for example the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its fake (in real life) owner, Louisville football last year was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield will be out win matches and to change the civilization and worked wonders at Appalachian State. This wont happen right away as the talent level is down from theVille. However this is a big moment for Louisville, a group which has the chance.
Ive read in which the Cards coaches have popped up the slow mechanisms of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and that I enjoy Hassan Hall since the direct running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins the defense that makes me more worried. You have your Irish up, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing much since the Notre Dame defense will keep them comfortable in their nest flying into this match. Scott Satterfield is presently in the big leagues and he has a team coming from a dismal 2-10 record last year where they went winless in ACC activity. This rebuild is comparable to seeking to turn it and carrying a hot air balloon.
While this may eventually occur, the problem is that Louisville is confronting a team that made it to the CFP last year and owned one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, devoting only 17.2 points within the regular season and going a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders also, averaging over 33 points per game.
My question is, just how can be a quarterback like Pass who is slow to release, supposed to gain some traction against a swarming shield? Particularly when he is working with a trainer and an offensive scheme that is entirely new?
Please, Doug, rescue me Im lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville is going to be able to keep up with this Golden Domers and Im desperate to handicapping experience and your sage wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am happy to read in your last sentence youre coming over to the bright side of sports gambling, or youre simply being the exact wise a** you usually are. Ill allow the SBR readers that are currently making this is decided on by college football selections. I am the first to realize Louisville was not only 2-10, however, 1-11 ATS and fully pumped final year.
Just like he composed to the Atlanta Falcons, but that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino. A coach brings a new attitude and his staff will be sold by Satterfield on building a statement this being a federal match. Louisville does need to trust not and they will not be taken by the Irish for granted have a lot of fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly with gold and all the blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a ATS, when dishing out more or 20 specimens. That defense you said may improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, even whenever you dont/can not amuse like Clemson or Bama, it is going to take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was a bit facetious because though youve got an handicapping restart, then you miss the mark from time to time. And in this circumstance, because Louisville could be better than last season but Id submit that they could be coached with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their record left by an equally inept coach like 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 betting the heavy road chalk, but at times the general public is correct, and in this instance they are. Until once we get down on our NFL Game of the Week next week, lets see what happens on Monday night once the Irish come ready to squint at Louisville.
