Notre Dame (9) vs Louisville Monday, September 2 nd, 8:00 PM in Cardinal Stadium Swinging Johnson: This week Doug Upstone and render our school football picks on the Monday night game between the Louisville Cardinals and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and I shall deviate from our regularly scheduled program of NFL debate to dip our toes. It will most likely be the very first and only time this season we do so, 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 top clubs in the nation, plus a legendary football program to boot, Notre Dame. Without further ado, lets begin the debate after my friend Doug Upstone got the better of me last week with a wager about the Steelers while the Titans were supported by me. We have been swapping wins on and back so it appears like its my turn to the gold wreath, as I will follow the squares laying the lumber that is heavy onto a public road favorite and endorse the Irish. After reviewing the college football odds nearly six days prior to this Monday night event, I see the lineup has spiked a half-point about the favorite, starting at Notre Dame -19 1/2 to where its now offered in a solid -20 across the board whatsoever of the very best online sportsbooks. I like the Irish but youre currently leaning to the Cardinals. Other than the place do you think Louisville could hang with the boys from South Bend? Doug Upstone: Yes at least and a convincing win IMO, it said a lot about the Steelers and Titans direction. Lets move to soccer, in which the matches rely and will our recordings with this one. Remember those Thursday night games Louisville used to perform against big-name competitions? They held their engineered and own upsets. These were enjoyable games and also the Cardinals were a thrilling golf club. However, like the former Papa Johns Stadium and its fake (in real life) proprietor, Louisville football last season was worse than a three-day-old pizza. Scott Satterfield are out win matches and to change the civilization and worked miracles. This wont happen immediately as the talent level is down from theVille. This is a significant moment for Louisville, a group that has the opportunity to begin taking steps. Ive read in which the Cards trainers have sped up the slow mechanics of QB Jawon Pass (good name for a QB) and I enjoy Hassan Hall as the direct running back. Than having a ticket for the Colts at OVER 9 for season wins the protection, well, that makes me more nervous. You have up your Irish, please dont forget. 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 team coming from a dismal record this past year, in which they went winless in ACC action. This rebuild is akin to attempting to turn it in an F-22 Raptor 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 last year and possessed one of the stingiest defenses in all of college football, surrendering just 17.2 points within the normal season and moving a perfect 12-0 till they met Clemson in the CFP semifinals. The offense clicked on all cylinders averaging over 33 points per match. My question is, how can be a quarterback like Pass whos slow to release, designed to get some traction against a swarming defense? Particularly when hes working with a coach and an offensive scheme? Please, Doug, save me I am lost! I find no way, shape or form in which Louisville will be able to keep pace with this Golden Domers and I am desperate for handicapping experience that is prodigious and your sage wisdom! Doug Upstone: Well, Swinger, Im happy to see in your last sentence youre coming on to the glowing side of sports betting, or you are simply being the same wise a** you are. Ill allow the SBR readers who are making school football picks decide on this. Im the first to understand Louisville fully pumped and was, but 1-11 ATS final season. But that team COMPLETELY gave up on coach Bobby Petrino, just like he gave up on the Atlanta Falcons. A fresh attitude is brought by A coach and this being a federal game, Satterfield will market his team. Louisville does need to hope the Irish will take them for granted and never have much 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. This defense you mentioned may improve as the season progresses but replacing five starters, when you dont/cant recruit like Bama or Clemson, it is going to take time. Swinging Johnson: Well Doug, I was becoming a bit facetious because though you have an handicapping restart, you miss the mark from time to time. And in this situation, you happen to be shooting blanks because Louisville could be greater but Id submit that they could be coached by a Rhesus monkey and enhance upon their deplorable record rendered by an equally awkward trainer like Petrino. I know that placing nearly three touchdowns on the street would be square biz for certain and Joe Q. Public never got rich by gambling the heavy street chalk, but at times the people is correct, and in this case they definitely are. Until when we get back on our NFL Game of the Week next week, let us see what happens on Monday once the Irish come prepared to rumble in Louisville.
