Betting on the Super Bowl
The Super Bowl is one of the most heavily bet on sporting events in the world, and its impact on betting and odds cannot be overstated. Prior to the big game, bookmakers and sportsbooks spend weeks analyzing data and statistics to develop NFL odds and betting lines that accurately reflect the strengths and weaknesses of each team.
As the Super Bowl approaches, betting activity intensifies and odds can shift rapidly based on the volume of wagers placed on each team, this can lead to wild swings in the football odds, particularly in the days leading up to the game, as large amounts of money are wagered on one team or the other.
Super Bowl Futures Odds
Futures odds for the Super Bowl are typically released in the NFL offseason, but they can be released just days after the previous Super Bowl has ended. These will then fluctuate throughout the regular season and playoffs as teams’ performances and rosters change.
As the 2023 NFL season progresses and more information becomes available about the teams, sportsbooks will begin to release more specific futures odds for Super Bowl #58, which is currently scheduled for February 5, 2024.

How to Read Super Bowl Odds & Spreads
NFL point spreads for the Super Bowl usually manifest as a negative number like -300 or a plus number like +500. These are βAmerican oddsβ and indicate what you need to bet to win $100 -in the case of negative numbers ($300 to win $100 for -300)- or what you win when you bet $100 ($500 from a $100 bet for +500).
Team | Line |
---|---|
New England Patriots | -300 |
Miami Dolphins | +500 |
Additionally, βdecimalβ and βfractionalβ odds are two other formats you can use. Decimal odds indicate your total payout (your bet + your winnings) while fractional odds show how much you win using the numerator (first number to the left) with the bet you place using the denominator (second number to the right).
These Super Bowl point spreads allow you to bet on who you think will win it next year. As this is such a long-term projection, expect the betting lines to shift as the year progresses. Keep track of the teams to estimate when the best times to bet on them are.
Super Bowl Betting example
Betting on the Super Bowl game is like betting on every NFL game. You have your point spread, moneyline, and total (over/under) along with props. For the Super Bowl, props are ridiculous in number: you can bet on football-related plays, such as a quarterbackβs passing yards, or on non-football things, like the color of the national anthem singerβs dress.
As far as outright or futures bets are concerned, betting on more than one team is usually the way to go. Thanks to the parity in the NFL, a handful of teams are lined in the +500 to +900 range to win. Placing a bet on one, two, or even three can increase your odds of winning.
Super Bowl Tips Before Betting
Track the Super Bowl odds through the sportsbook. You will notice the lines shift throughout the season. For example, the Buffalo Bills open as the Super Bowl LVII favorites in the preseason. But after a few losses, the Billsβ odds lengthen making them a more lucrative bet. You can bet them twice or wait longer to see how the market reacts.
