I think my favorite Super Bowl prop bet is who will be the Super Bowl MVP. It seems like every year about 40 guys are listed for this prop bet, and only an about a dozen have a real shot at it. Of course the quarterbacks, wide receivers, and running backs are the favorites, and they should be. For the last 2 years a quarterback has won the Super Bowl MVP. The year that Hines Ward won it, it almost seemed like he won it by default because Ben Roethlisberger didn’t play well enough to win it!
There are a lot of other props that you can bet for the Super Bowl. Every year BoDog (an online sports book) seems to come out with about 200 different props that you can bet. Whether Kurt Warner will throw over/under 254 yards, how many interceptions he will throw, how many touchdowns he will throw, his number of completions, his number of rushing yards, the number of times he is sacked etc. The list goes on and on. And this isn’t just for the quarterbacks, it could be guys like Brian Westbrook too: Westbrook will have over/under X rushing yards, over/under X amount of receptions, X number of reception yards, X number of touchdowns, etc.
Some of the most amusing prop bets will be on the Super Bowl commercials. I haven’t heard of any of them yet for this year, but there is at least 1 every year, so watch out for it!
All the standard NFL prop bets will be available too. A standard prop bet would be: Which team scores first? Which team scores last? Is the first score a touchdown or a field goal? Who win the coin toss? Will there be a kick off return for a touchdown? How many interceptions will there be? And on and on and on.
See? There really are a ton of things that you can bet on this Super Bowl. And it’s like this every year. Probably because it is the most bet (and watched) game in the world.
I have to say that I love all the prop bets that are offered. On one game, you can bet at least 200 different things and have almost something new going on every single play.
BoDog and a few other online sports books are also offering live Super Bowl betting. This means that you can bet Super Bowl online with an adjusted spread and total after every single play. Yes, live betting is great has to be offered for the biggest year of the year. If you sports book doesn’t offer live betting, give one that does a try. You might find that you love it.
