Game preview Notre Dame vs Louisville
Jeff Brohm has been apart of a quick turn around in Louisville, and while the schedule has not been tough, his impact is plain to see. Notre Dame looks like an elite team, they lost to Ohio State but the Buckeyes are a top-ten team, and it was a close-to-the-wire loss.
Can the Cardinals pull off the upset at home
Jeff Brohm’s crew is unquestionably real.
So, what exactly is going right for the Cardinals? Toughness and the ability to get physical has helped the Cardinals to turn it around at warp-speed.
How does this even happen? The defense has taken the ball away in droves, the offensive balance has remained intact, and veteran quarterback Jack Plummer has held his own in leading Brohm’s passing attack downfield.
Louisville quarterback Jake Plummer currently leads their conference in yards per completion. That feat makes Plummer stand out among players like Jordan Travis, Drake Maye, Riley Leonard, and Tyler Van Dyke who all possess outstanding passing yards per completion numbers.
At least the threat of deep shots must open up Irish defense; and the Cardinals run defense is solid.
Can the Irish win again on the road
Just when it seems as though the Irish are about to be eliminated from college football competition in 2023… they roar back.
Sam Hartman pulls off something remarkable, and the team remains in contention – as they should. Their offensive lines and running game have been solid, with Auric Estime leading them home run hitting from the backfield. Their defense has not allowed much.
Quarterbacks have completed 47% of their passes against this group.
Notre Dame’s Ohio State loss is close enough for the College Football Playoff committee to overlook, provided Notre Dame can finish unbeaten. Ahead is a highly challenging slate, so going 11-1 would demonstrate Notre Dame’s mettle..
Duke is a top 25 program with an elite collegequarterback in Riley Leonard, and Notre Dame has proven itself with a fantastic comeback road win over them both. Next week, they face USC, so stay tuned.
Our Betting Pick for Today – Bet the Irish -6.5
Notre Dame wins and covers, the Cardinals are improved, but it won’t be enough to matchup and beat Notre Dame. Notre Dame 31 Louisville 20.
