We can tell you Sallee is taking the Over 49.5 in the matchup between Memphis and FAU in the 2020 Montgomery Bowl at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
“The Tigers have one of the most potent offenses in the AAC, and the Owls just got lit up by a reeling Southern Miss team that has had one of the most chaotic seasons in college football — complete with three different head coaches,” Sallee said. “The Tigers have 174 plays of 10 or more yards — most in the AAC. The scoreboard will light up on Wednesday night.”

Here are Barrett Sallee’s picks and write-ups for bowl games on Dec. 23 (picks posted on Dec. 22):
MEMPHIS @ FAU | 12/23 | 7:00 PM ET
OVER 49.5
The Tigers have one of the most potent offenses in the AAC, and the Owls just got lit up by a reeling Southern Miss team that has had one of the most chaotic seasons in college football — complete with three different head coaches. The Tigers have 174 plays of 10 or more yards — most in the AAC. The scoreboard will light up on Wednesday night.
LOUISIANA TECH @ GA. SOUTHERN | 12/23 | 3:00 PM ET
OVER 48.5
Unless something changes in terms of players available, I just can’t see how this game goes Under. Not only do the matchups favor both offenses, both teams have hit the Over more than the Under this season.

LOUISIANA TECH @ GA. SOUTHERN | 12/23 | 3:00 PM ET
GA. SOUTHERN -6.5
The Eagles are flat out monsters on the ground. They are averaging 262.5 yards per game on the ground in a modified option system out of the spread. Meanwhile, Louisiana Tech ranks ninth in Conference USA in rushing defense at 184.56 yards per game and has given up 22 rushing touchdowns — second-most in the conference. This is just a bad matchup for the Bulldogs.
