Super Bowl = Prop bets
So my favorite thing about the Super Bowl every year is the absurd amount of prop bets available. When I’m at a party w/ like minded folks, I’ll usually try to get as many going as possible. This year, now that I got Bodog working again, I decided to juts make a litany of them there. These are all for small amounts, so I won’t be buying a new car or having to sell my things if they all go south. As for the final, I think the Giants take the game. I plan on taking the money line, but am hoping late money will go the Pats way and push it a little higher. Between the insane pass rush of NY and NE’s porous secondary, I see Eli hilariously passing his brother’s ring total. After the jump, here’s a stupid list of things I’ve decided to wager on. Let me know any thoughts, why I’m dumb, or wagers you’ve got (especially you Sam).
Giants O:
· Eli Manning pass yards= over 315 16.50 -> 13.70
· Will Victor Cruz score a TD = YES TD 10 -> 10
· Eli Manning total TD passes = over 2.5 10 -> 14.50
· Longest Eli completion = Over 45.5 5 -> 3.85
· Eli Manning Rushing Yard = over 3.5 20 -> 15.38
Giants D:
· Total tackles & Assists for JPP = over 5.5 5.75 -> 5
· Total Sacks for Osi Umenyiora = under .5 3.45 -> 5
Patriots O:
· First Patrios reception = Rob Gronkowski 5 -> 13.75
Misc:
· Total # Sacks in the game = OVER 4.5 5.53 -> 6.08
· How many times will Andrew Luck’s full name be said during game = Over 1
5 ->4.55
· Will there be an excessive celebration penalty in the game = NO 5 -> 12.50
· How many times will David Tyree’s catch be shown during game = Over 1.5 5 -> 5
· First TD in the game scored by = Rob Gronkowski 5 -> 30
· First TD in the game scored by = Victor Cruz 5 -> 37.5
· Superbowl MVP = Justin Tuck 2 -> 100
· Superbowl MVP = Antrell Rolle 1 -> 75
Tyree is a sucker bet now that I think about it. I wish I had that one back. It’ll get played 85 times in the pregame, but during the game itself, 1 is probably the max. As you can tell, I’m clearly banking on the Pats secondary getting torn up by Eli and co. We will see. Happy gambling friends.
