How Much Money Will Be Bet On Super Bowl 54?
The Super Bowl is one of the biggest sporting events of the year, so it’s not surprising that it’s a popular day for betting too. In 2018, the state of New Jersey handled $34.9 million in Super Bowl bets. However, remember that sports betting was just getting started in the state at that time.
For comparison, the handle in Nevada for the Super Bowl was $145,935,025, so you can expect New Jersey to put up similar numbers for the 2020 Super Bowl.
Super Bowl Bets
Super Bowl Sunday features just one game, so you might think your NJ online sports betting options are limited. That couldn’t be further from the reality as the sportsbooks give you the opportunity to bet on every single aspect of the game.
Point Spread
The most common approach to betting on the NFL and the Super Bowl is the point spread. The sportsbooks will release their lines for the big game with a spread assigned to the specific matchup. Here are this year’s an example:
San Francisco 49ers +1.5
Kansas City Chiefs -1.5
The point spread represents an expected margin of victory to a degree. Bettors can pick which team they want to bet on to cover the point spread. If they pick the sports betting favorite – the team with the minus sign in front of their odds – then that team will need to not only win the game outright but also cover the point spread. In this case, Kansas City would have to win by two or more. If they win and cover, that is referred to as “beating the spread”.
Meanwhile, anybody that wants to bet on the underdog – the team with the plus sign in front of their odds – they will only need that team to cover the point spread. In this case, the 49ers can lose by two or one, or win the game, and you’d win your bet.
The point spread depends on the perceived matchup and how the sportsbooks feel the contest will play out.
Money Line
Another common type of Super Bowl wager is the money line. This is betting on the outright winner of the game. The sportsbooks will assign the teams playing in the Super Bowl money line odds. Let’s use this year’s as an example:
San Francisco 49ers +108
Kansas City Chiefs -122
If the number is preceded by a “-“, then that team is considered the favorite. If the money line number is preceded by a “+”, then that team is considered an underdog. In this case, the Chiefs are listed at -122 and the Rams listed at +108. This means that if you bet on Kansas City, you need to risk $122 to win $100. On the flip side, if you want to bet on Los Angeles, you can risk $100 to win $108. You don’t have to bet exactly those amounts but this gives you an idea of what the payouts will be.
Totals – Over/Under
As is the case with the money line and the point spread, most people are familiar with betting totals. These wagers are often referred to as the Over/Under. When betting on the totals for the Super Bowl, football fans will need to check out the assigned number given to the game by the sportsbooks.
That total serves as the mark for which to bet on, depending on when you think the teams will combine for more points or less points than the number. For example, if the total for the game is listed at 57.5, then anybody that bets the Over needs the teams to combine to score 58 points or more. Anybody that bets the Under needs the teams to combine for 57 points or less in order to win their wager.
Propositions (Prop Bets)
One of the things that makes Super Bowl betting so much fun is the props. Rather than betting on the outcomes of the games, fans can bet on specific results within the game. Sportsbooks will set proposition lines for everything from the number of passing yards a quarterback will throw for to the total number of turnovers in the game, the result of the coin toss and the length of the halftime performance. You’ll even get wacky ones like what outfit the halftime performer will wear to how long it will take to sing the national anthem.
One of the best parts about prop bets is that they don’t necessarily depend on the final score of the actual game, so if you have no good feel on who’ll win the game, you have the option to bet on these props.
Parlays
Another popular Super Bowl wager are parlays. A parlay is a type of bet where you predict multiple outcomes and if any are wrong, you lose the bet. However, if they’re all correct, you win a nice payday.
In the Super Bowl, that might mean parlaying the game winner and the total. Or it could mean parlay some props – if your sportsbook allows it. There’s greater risk with parlays but greater reward.
Futures
Futures bets are a type of long-term bet, like predicting who’ll win the Super Bowl early on in the season. These are not available when the Super Bowl is the last game of the year but they are available earlier in the season. For example, let’s say at the start of next season, you want to bet the Patriots to win it all. You might see odds like this:
Super Bowl 2021 Winner
Patriots 6/1
Rams 8/1
Saints 10/1
Chiefs 10/1
In this case, you bet on the team you think will win the Super Bowl. If you win, you’ll get a nice payout. On the flip side, the risk here is that your bet is usually locked up for a while.
