At time of this blog post, the following are the odds at major sportsbooks:
- Diamond Sportsbook: +5/-5 Saints/Colts
Bookmaker - BookMaker.com Sportsbook: +5.5/-5.5 Saints/Colts
- JustBet.com Sportsbook: +5/-5 Saints/Colts
- 5dimes.com Sportsbook: +4.5/-4.5 Saints/Colts
- The Greek Sportsbook: +5/-5 Saints/Colts
5dimes.com has the closest spread by far. This is mostly due to the fact that 5Dimes.com caters to some professional punters. Things are a little more open at the recreational book except BookMaker.com is throwing an extra 1/2 point on top of the average 5 point spread either way. The Colts are still the favorite going into this contest.
More Wagering Options
Other wagering options include props. Props are bets on unforeseen events in the future, and do not have a spread. Instead, they payout based on the sportsbook’s estimation of how likely it is that the specific event will occur.
Top Super Bowl 44 props include: Player to score first Touch Down, Quarterback to throw first Interception, Player to make the first successful sack, and kicker to have most points in the game.
Of course, this lineup doesn’t include other standard wagers like money line bets and totals. Right now, many of the pundits over at www.NFL.com are thinking it will be a high scoring game, putting the total around 62 points. You can pick the over/under based on that.
Good Luck Super Bowl Betting!
