Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and render our college football picks and that I shall detract to dip our feet into uncharted waters.
It will probably be the first and only time this season we do this, as the last week of display NFL football is somewhat lackluster compared to a regular-season game of NCAA soccer featuring one of the very best teams in the nation, and a mythical 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 with a bet about the Steelers while the Titans were backed by me. Weve been placing wins forth and back so it appears like it is my turn to the gold wreath, as I heartily endorse the Irish and will follow the squares putting the thick lumber onto a road favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days prior to this Monday night affair, I see the line has spiked a half-point on the favorite, opening at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where it is currently offered at a solid -20 round the board whatsoever of the best online sportsbooks.
I enjoy the Irish but youre currently leaning on the Cardinals. Other than the place, why is it that you think Louisville can hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yup Swinger, IMO and a successful triumph, it said a great deal about both the Steelers and Titans direction. Lets move to soccer, in which the games rely and so will our recordings on this one.
Remember those Thursday night games Louisville used to perform against big-name competitions? They held their own and engineered upsets. These were fun games to see and also the Cardinals were an golf club.
However, for example the former Papa Johns Stadium as well as its phony (in real life) proprietor, Louisville soccer last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza.
Scott Satterfield worked miracles and are out to alter the culture and win matches. This will not happen right away as the ability level is down from theVille. This is a significant moment for Louisville, a team which has the opportunity.
I have read in which the Cards trainers have popped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (great name for a QB) and that I like Hassan Hall because the direct running back. Than using a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season 23, the protection, well, which makes me more nervous. You have your Irish up, please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing flying into this match as the Notre Dame defense will keep them cozy in their nest. Scott Satterfield is now in the big leagues and he has a team coming from a dismal record where they went winless this past year. This rebuild is akin to attempting to turn it and carrying a hot air balloon.
While this may eventually occur, the problem is that Louisville is confronting a group that 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 going a perfect 12-0 till they fulfilled Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense was clicking on all cylinders as well, averaging 33 points per game over.
My issue is, just how will be a quarterback like traveling who is slow to release, designed to get any traction against a defense? Especially when he is 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 is going to have the ability to keep pace and Im desperate for handicapping experience that is prodigious and your ancestral wisdom!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im glad to read in your last sentence youre coming around to the bright side of sports betting, or you are just being the exact identical shrewd a** you usually are. I will allow the SBR readers who are making college football selections decide on that. I am the first to realize Louisville was 1-11 ATS, although not just 2-10 and fully pumped final season.
Just like he gave up around the Atlanta Falcons However, coach Bobby Petrino was given up on by that team COMPLETELY. A new mindset is brought by A coach and with this being a national game, Satterfield will sell his staff. Louisville does need to trust they will not be taken by the Irish for granted and not have much fight.
Lets also consider, Brian Kelly using all the gold and blue is ATS as a road favorite, also a mere 7-9-1 ATS, if dishing out more or 20 digits. This defense you said might improve as the year progresses but replacing five starters, whenever you dont/cant amuse like Bama or even Clemson, it will take some time.
I was becoming a bit facetious because though you have an impressive handicapping restart, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this scenario, because Louisville might be better than last year but I would submit that they are trained with a Rhesus monkey and improve upon their deplorable document rendered by an equally inept trainer like Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I understand that placing nearly three touchdowns on the street would be square biz for sure and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy street chalk, but on occasion the public is correct, and also in this situation they are. Until once we get back 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.
