When it comes to college football, there are few who deserve the "expert" tag quite like Barrett Sallee. The CBS Sports writer and analyst hosts shows on SiriusXM College, writes for CBSSports.com and appears regularly on CBS Sports HQ as well as countless radio shows across the nation as a guest.
Sallee debuted with SportsLine in 2017 and has delivered in a BIG way. He went 59-35-2 (63 percent, plus $2,037) on all his college football picks for SportsLine in 2019, and he also enters Friday's action on a 77-51 streak on his best bets since the start of last year. Anybody who has been following him is WAY UP.
Now, he's turned his attention to the college football bowl odds from William Hill Sportsbook (see the latest college football lines for each game this week on our college football odds page) and is revealing his three top plays for Jan. 1. A parlay on these three picks would return 6-1.
We can tell you Sallee is going Under 66.5 in the matchup between Clemson and Ohio State in the 8 p.m. ET College Football Playoff semifinal matchup.
"Clemson's defense has gotten healthy at the right time and there's something off about Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields and, more importantly, the offensive play-calling," Sallee said. "It's hard to imagine both of these teams getting to the 30s in what should be more of a defensive battle than most are expecting."
Sallee has also found two other college football picks he loves, including a must-see play against the spread in one of the College Football Playoff matchups. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in any college football picks.
