There’s a lone football game on the schedule tomorrow, but it’s a big one. Two renowned college football programs battle for a chance to continue their quest for their first national championship in 35+ years. For my SGPN Parlay for Thursday (January 9th): College Football Parlay, I’ve cooked up a Same Game Parlay for tomorrow’s Orange Bowl (aka one-half of the College Football Playoff semifinals).

Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs Penn State Nittany Lions
Start Time – 7:30 PM EST
It’s hard to believe, but the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Penn State Nittany Lions haven’t won a national championship since 1988 and 1986, respectively. One team will make it to the final step this season after tomorrow night. And I think the team advancing will be Notre Dame.
This isn’t just a very close game on the spread – it is on paper, as well. Notre Dame has the better offense and a slightly better defense – they should win this game by a couple of points. Notre Dame on the spread is the first half of my parlay.
The second half of the parlay is under 45 points for the game total. The Fighting Irish and the Nittany Lions have two of the stingiest defenses in the nation this season, only allowing 29 points per game combined on average.
SGPN Parlay: Notre Dame -1 + Fighting Irish/Nittany Lions Under 45 Points (+260)
Overall Record: 54-113 (32%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): -($240.00)
Return on Investment: -1%
