Super Bowl prop bets are the some of the most popular wagers you can make on the Big Game. We list the most popular Super Bowl props from Gatorade to game props.
Super Bowl prop bets have moved to the forefront as a key part of Big Game betting cards.
Bettors have thousands of Super Bowl props to add to their betting experience for Super Bowl Sunday, with plenty of options on the board already — and more to come as the season rolls along.
According to a top sports analyst, “Our best tips for betting on Super Bowl props are: Create your game narrative, find the best odds, and, most importantly, have fun.”
Below, we outline the different kinds of props you can bet on right now, along with the latest odds… which is just a fraction of the markets that will be available at Super Bowl betting sites as we reach February 9, 2025.
“Some examples of props include team props, where bets are based on the performance of the two Super Bowl participants,” says a prominent oddsmaker. “These can be useful if you have a good feeling as to how one team will perform in the game but aren’t so certain about the other. A popular team prop is the Over/Under for how many points each team will score.”
“These markets won’t be available until the Super Bowl 59 matchup is set, but some examples of team props include total team rushing yards and passing yards,” adds the oddsmaker.
Another expert notes that NFL player prop odds are available for all NFL games, but these markets are massive for a high-profile event like the Super Bowl, allowing multiple ways to wager on the performance of just about every player on the field.
At some sportsbooks, Super Bowl player props are more popular for bettors than in traditional betting markets.
Exotic Super Bowl props, also known as novelty props, are a favorite with all fans, allowing you to bet not just on the game but the event that is Super Bowl Sunday. Novelty props are often not graded by what’s in the box score or even what happens on the football field.
However, while Super Bowl novelty props are extremely popular, they’re not available in all regions. Online-based sportsbooks will offer the largest – and wildest – menu of exotics, while books regulated state-by-state may be limited or prohibited from offering these kinds of markets.
“A Super Bowl tradition is also one of its most popular exotic props,” notes a seasoned bettor, “with online sportsbooks offering odds on the color of the Gatorade bath given to the winning coach of the Super Bowl.”
“Orange has been the most popular color over the years, but blue has been used for the last two Super Bowls,” he adds.
Betting on the Super Bowl coin toss is a hugely popular prop and is offered at every sportsbook during the Big Game. The most common way to bet the coin toss is simply picking which side is the winning side of the flip: Head or Tails?
“There’s not much handicapping or research you can do for this prop pick, as a coin toss has a 50/50 chance of landing on your side of choice,” explains a seasoned gambler.
In conclusion, Super Bowl prop bets are a thrilling way to enhance your Big Game experience, with a wide array of options available to cater to every type of bettor. So make sure to do your homework, find the best odds, and most importantly, enjoy the excitement of Super Bowl Sunday!
