A very merry Christmas parlay involving NBA, NFL and CFB action
Even on Christmas, there's money to be made.
By now, your travel plans are finalized, gifts are under the tree, dinner is marinating and Christmas music – good or not – has been blaring for several days now. The only thing missing to make this holiday season complete is the perfect parlay for the Christmas Day slate of games.
The NBA has always been the main sports attraction on the Christmas holiday and that remains the case despite a wave of COVID-19 outbreaks that threatened to change the look of its five-game slate. And for the second year in a row, the NFL will also be featured on Christmas – this time with two games chock full o’playoff implications to satisfy your cravings.
Then, there’s some college action, which includes the Camellia Bowl, returning for its eighth inaugural game and second consecutive on Christmas Day. Typically played between teams from the Mid-American Conference and Sun Belt, this year’s game features Georgia State against Ball State. There’s also a four-game slate of college hoops for the Hawaiian Airlines Diamond Head Classic, but I’ll leave those for another expert to pick.
So, without further ado, here’s the best combination of picks from the NBA, NFL and CFB schedule to create a very Merry Christmas parlay.
