Christmas Eve Football: One Bowl Game Amidst Holiday Cheer

On Christmas Eve, football enthusiasts have a single college bowl game to enjoy. The Sheraton Hawai'i Bowl pits the California Golden Bears against the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in Honolulu. This marks the sole football contest scheduled for the day, with kickoff at 8 p.m. ET.

While the NFL has no games planned for Christmas Eve, fans can look forward to three streamed matchups on Christmas Day. These include the Washington Commanders versus the Dallas Cowboys, the Detroit Lions against the Minnesota Vikings, and the Kansas City Chiefs facing the Denver Broncos.

Several other college bowl games have already concluded this week, with teams like the Washington State Cougars and Louisville Cardinals securing victories. The college football transfer portal continues to be a significant factor, reshaping team rosters as players seek new opportunities. The College Football Playoff is also progressing, with its championship game slated for January 19.
