Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and leave our school football selections on the Monday night match between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and then also that I shall detract to dip our feet into uncharted waters.
It will almost certainly be the very first and only time this season we do so, as the previous week of exhibition NFL soccer is somewhat lackluster compared to some regular-season sport of NCAA football featuring one of the very best clubs in the nation, and a legendary soccer program to boot up, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets begin the debate after my buddy Doug Upstone got the better of me last week with a wager on the Steelers while the Titans were backed by me. Weve been swapping wins back and forth so it appears like its my turn for the wreath, as I will follow each of the squares putting the thick lumber onto a public road favorite and heartily endorse the Irish.
After reviewing the school football odds almost six days prior to the Monday night affair, I see the lineup has spiked a half-point on the favorite, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its now offered in a solid -20 throughout the board at all of the best online sportsbooks.
Doug, I like the Irish but you are leaning on the Cardinals within this battle. Apart from the place is it that you think Louisville could hang with the boys from South Bend?
Doug Upstone: Yes IMO and a convincing triumph, said a great deal about the direction of the Steelers and Titans. Lets move to real soccer, where the games count and so will our records with this one.
Remember all those Thursday night games Louisville used to play against competitions that are big-name? They held their engineered and own many upsets. These were enjoyable games and also the Cardinals were an exciting club.
But for example the former Papa Johns Stadium and its fake (in real life) owner, Louisville football last year was worse than the usual three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked wonders and will be out win matches and to alter the culture. This will not happen right away as the talent level is down in theVille. Yet this is a moment for Louisville, a team that has the opportunity.
Ive read in which the Cards coaches have popped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good 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 which makes me more worried. You have your Irish up, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing flying in this match since the Notre Dame defense will keep them cozy in their nest. Scott Satterfield is currently in the big leagues and he has a group coming off of a dismal record in which they went winless last year. This rebuild is comparable to carrying a hot air balloon and attempting to turn it into an F-22 Raptor.
While this may eventually occur, the issue is that Louisville is facing a team that made it to the CFP this past year and possessed only one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points over the regular season and moving a perfect 12-0 until they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense has been clicking on all cylinders averaging 33 points per match over.
My issue is, just how will be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to release, supposed to get some traction against a Irish defense? Especially when hes working with a completely new offensive strategy and a new coach?
Please, Doug, save me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form where Louisville will have the ability to keep up with this Golden Domers and Im desperate for the sage wisdom and handicapping expertise that is prodigious!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im pleased to see in your last sentence youre coming over to the sunny side of sports betting, or you are just being the same wise a** you are. I will let the SBR readers that are currently making this is decided on by school football picks. Im the first to understand Louisville sucked and was, however, 1-11 ATS last season.
But that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons. A new attitude is brought by A new trainer and with this being a match, Satterfield will sell his team. Louisville does have to trust that the Irish will take them for granted and not have a lot of fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly using all the blue and gold is ATS as a road favorite, and if dishing out 20 or more specimens, a mere 7-9-1 ATS. That defense you said might improve as the year progresses but substituting five starters, whenever you dont/cant recruit like Clemson or Bama, it will take some time.
I was being a bit facetious because although youve got an handicapping restart that you miss the mark from time to time. And in this instance, because Louisville could be better but I would submit that they are trained by a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their document rendered by an equally inept trainer like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that laying nearly three touchdowns on the street would be square biz for certain and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy street chalk, but on occasion the general public is right, and also in this case they definitely 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 rumble in Louisville.
