Super Bowl Bet Types

Betting on Super Bowl 2013 is certainly like being in punters’ wonderland! As expected all  online bookmakers offer fixed odds and betting lines on the game’s outcome but the excitement doesn’t stop there, with dozens of markets on offer. The plethora of choice can be a bit daunting for those not betting regularly, so we are describing below the main categories of Super Bowl bet types to make things a bit easier.

Overs/Unders – Instead of betting on Super Bowl’s final outcome, this bet gives you the opportunity to bet on the combined score of both teams. For example, you can bet that both teams will score more or less than 36.5 by the end of the game.
 

Point spreads – This is a wager on a team covering a specific point spread, e.g. if San Francisco 49ers are given a spread of +4.5 in Super Bowl 2013, they will have to win the game of lose by less than 4 points for your bet to be a winner.
 

Proposition or Prop bets – These are bets placed on merely everything else, except the outcome of the game, and can include some really strange bets. The most common Super Bowl prop wagers are which will be the first or last-scoring team, which team will be winning at half-time, who will be the first TD scorer, who will the Super Bowl MVP be, who will win the game’s first touch-down, who will the toss coin at the start of the game and if the outcome will be heads or tails, if the score of the game will be a field goal or TD, if quarterback A or B will have the most passing yards and many more.
