Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville
Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM at Cardinal Stadium
Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and I shall detract to dip our feet and then also leave our college football selections.
It will probably be the very first and only time this season we do this, as the last week of exhibition NFL football is somewhat lackluster in comparison to a regular-season game of NCAA soccer comprising one of the very best teams in the country, and a mythical football program to boot, Notre Dame.
Without further ado, lets start the debate after my friend Doug Upstone got the best of me last week with a bet about the Steelers while I supported the Titans. We have been swapping wins back and forth so it appears like it is my turn for the golden wreath, as I endorse the Irish and will follow the squares laying the lumber that is heavy on a public street favorite.
After reviewing the college football odds almost six days ahead of the 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 it is now offered in a solid -20 round the board whatsoever the best internet sportsbooks.
You are currently leaning to the Cardinals in this battle although doug, I love the Irish. Apart from the place, why is it that you think Louisville can hang with the boys?
Doug Upstone: Yup Swinger, a successful triumph and IMO, said a great deal about the direction of both the Steelers and Titans. Lets proceed to soccer, so will our records with this one and where the games count.
Remember all those Thursday night matches Louisville used to play against opponents that are big-name? They more than held their own and engineered upsets. These were enjoyable games and the Cardinals were an club.
However, for example the former Papa Johns Stadium and its phony (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 to change the civilization and win games. This wont happen right away as the talent level is down in theVille. However this is a major moment for Louisville, a group which has the chance to begin taking steps in the perfect direction.
I have read where the Cards trainers have sped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and I like Hassan Hall as the lead running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 the shield which makes me more nervous. Why you have up your Irish please do tell.
Swinging Johnson: The Cardinals will not be doing since 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 group last year, where they went winless in ACC activity coming off of a dismal 2-10 record. This rebuild is comparable to seeking to turn it in an F-22 Raptor and taking a hot air balloon.
While this may eventually happen, the issue is that Louisville is facing a group that made it into the CFP this past year and possessed only 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 fulfilled Clemson from the CFP semifinals. The Irish offense clicked on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per game.
My query is, how can be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to discharge, designed to obtain some traction against a swarming defense that is Irish? Particularly when hes working with a new coach and a completely new offensive strategy?
Please, Doug, save me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville will be able to keep up with this Golden Domers and I am desperate to the ancestral wisdom and handicapping expertise that is prodigious!
Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, I am happy to see in your last sentence you are coming around to the bright side of sport betting, or you are just being the identical wise a** you are. Ill let the SBR readers that are currently making this is decided on by school football selections. I am the first to understand Louisville was, however 1-11 ATS and sucked last year.
But that staff COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, just like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons. A fresh attitude is brought by A coach on making a statement and this being a game, his staff will be sold by Satterfield. Louisville does need to hope they will not be taken by the Irish for granted and never have a lot of fight.
Let us also consider, Brian Kelly using all the gold and blue is just 10-13-1 ATS as a road favorite, also a mere 7-9-1 ATS, when dishing out 20 or more digits. This defense you mentioned may improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, if you dont/can not amuse like Bama or even Clemson, it is going to take time.
Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was being a bit facetious because though you have an handicapping restart, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this scenario, because Louisville might be greater but I would submit that they are trained with a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable document left by an trainer such as Petrino you happen to be shooting blanks.
I know that placing nearly 3 touchdowns on the street is square biz for sure and Joe Q. Public never got rich by betting the heavy road chalk, but at times the people is correct, and also in this instance they definitely are. Until when 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.
