Super Bowl 45 Betting Odds

The NFL is the most popular sport in the United States. The biggest game of the season has finally arrived, as the Green Bay Packers are set to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl 45. More money is wagered on this game than any other in the world. Many people who don’t bet on it tune in just to watch the commercials and the halftime show. But millions of folks from around the world will have money on this game, whether it’s a wager with a friend, a props pool, or the pros who have thousands riding on it.  It’s obviously a lot more fun to watch when your Super Bowl betting pans out and you win some cash.

If you want to wager on this game, then check out the Super Bowl 45 odds over at Sportsbook.com. There our readers can earn up to $250 free cash to wager on this game which takes place on February 6 down in Dallas, Texas.

Betting the Spread/Total: You will find a line of Green Bay -2.5 over Pittsburgh and a total set of 44.5 points. The Packers have opened as an early favorite due to their amazing run to get to this point. They’ve had to get through five straight must-win games dating back to their Week 16 win over the New York Giants. It’s a pretty evenly matched game defensively, but I believe the reason the Packers are favored is because of the play of Aaron Rodgers. While both teams are only giving up 15.3 points per game, this total has been set a bit higher than a lot of people would expect due to their playing conditions. This game will be in a dome at the New Cowboys Stadium so it’s certainly ideal weather for maximum scoring.

Betting on Super Bowl Props: I’ve actually got together with about 15 friends before to do a props pool which is a ton of fun. I’ll probably set up one again this season, and you should too. These props are random and some are pure chances, while others can take some thought. A few of the fun “chance” props are will the coin toss be heads or tails, which team will win the coin toss, which team will score first and will the longest touchdown scored in the game be more or less than 43.5 yards. Some of the props that take thought are total passing yards for Aaron Rodgers or Ben Roethlisberger, total tackles for certain defenders like Troy Polamalu or Clay Matthews, and total rushing yards from either Rashard Mendenhall or James Starks. You can bet the over or the under on these props. Check out all of the Super Bowl 45 Props at Sportsbook.com

I’ll be posting a few of the player props I like leading up to the Super Bowl. I’ll also be releasing my Super Bowl picks on this game where I have pinpointed which team will win and cover the spread.
