Making Super Bowl Bets Before the Big Game

The most action driven sports betting event of the year is here.

More money is wagered every year on the Super Bowl than any other single game.

The betting dollars have gone up significantly year over year.

In 2023, sports betting fans bet $16 billion on the Super Bowl.

Last year, that number climbed to $23.1 billion.

This year, with the popular Philadelphia Eagles taking on Kansas City, which is going for a never been done three in a row Lombardi victory, the wagering dollars should climb to over $25 billion or more.

What does that mean for Super Bowl bettors like us? It means that make the most money we can from the greatest betting event of 2025, we must manage our SB bankrolls.

Check out everything you must know to make February 9 a profitable day.

Why Create a Super Bowl Bankroll?

The Super Bowl is like nothing else we’re going to see in the next 12 months.

Although it’s a 60 minute pro football game, the Super Bowl is a betting bonanza offering much more than just the usual spread line, over/under total, and moneyline.

Various Super Bowl prop bets, alternate betting lines, and traditional future props like Super Bowl MVP makes betting the Super Bowl a once a year experience.

To profit, we can’t just rely on the tried and true unit system.

So we can’t go into the Super Bowl thinking we’ll just play a single unit and call it a day.

Sure, we could make money betting the Chiefs at -1.5 to cover for our $100, if that’s our unit for every bet, but we’re missing out on possible bigger profit.

Of course, the higher reward the more risk, but betting the Super Bowl only happens once every 365 or so days.

We should take advantage when we can.

To take advantage, to make the most possible profit, it’s important for us to create a specific Super Bowl bankroll.

We do this by thinking of percentages.

So if we assign each bet the typical $100 unit, a single betting unit is equal to $100, we can decide how much percentage of our total bankroll to play on the Super Bowl.

10% of our total bankroll of let’s say $1,000 is $100.

To make the most of our money on the Super Bowl, and to cover the bets we like the most, we should assign at least 30% of our bankroll to the Lombardi Trophy game if, and this is important, we are strictly a football bettor.

But if we also bet NBA, College Basketball, and MLB baseball, we might cut that to 15% to 20%.

It depends on the size of your bankroll and how comfortable you feel betting on the big game.

In any case, creating a Super Bowl bankroll is the first step.

You can always skip the big game but what fun is there in doing that?  

What’s the Best Way to Manage My Super Bowl Bankroll?

The best way to manage the Super Bowl bankroll is to first decide the percentage of your overall bankroll you wish to assign to the game.

Then, you can think of units, go back to $100 per unit if that’s your desire, or and this is what I do, think in terms of betting success probabilities.

What I do is categorize the bets I like most.

For example, I believe the Philadelphia Eagles offer an excellent moneyline opportunity in this Sunday’s game.

The moneyline on the Eagles is at +108.

How Much Should We Assign to Straight Super Bowl Bets?

My preference is the moneyline.

I don’t bet much baseball or basketball although I do put some money on the NCAA Men’s College Basketball Tournament.

But my expertise is football.

So I will assign 30% or more of my betting bankroll on the Super Bowl since for the most part I will be sitting on my hands until College Football Week 1.

Of that 30% up to half will go to the Eagles moneyline because I believe the probability of the Eagles upsetting the Chiefs is much greater than any other bet I like, and the payout is much better than taking the 1.5 points.

So I will put 15% of my 30% of my total bankroll on the Eagles to beat the Chiefs.

The rest of my 15% will go to other bets.

How Much Should We Bet On Before Placing Super Bowl Bets?

I’m going to spread the 15% around Super Bowl prop bets.

Jalen Hurts offers excellent odds at +370 to win Super Bowl MVP.

I don’t believe in betting more than a few Super Bowl props, 3 or 4 at the most.

In this case, because the odds on Hurts are so fantastic, I’m going to assign 7.5%, half of my 15%, to Hurts to win MVP.

That leaves me with 7.5% left to bet on other props.

Before getting into that, why bet on Hurts to win MVP instead of Saquon Barkley? Steve Spagnuolo knows he must stop Barkley to beat the Eagles.

So expect Spags to create a strategy to contains Saquon.

In the regular season game versus Josh Allen and the Bills, Allen went for 262 passing yards and a TD and 55 rushing yards and a TD.

Spags recalibrated to beat Allen in the AFC Championship but he has yet to face Hurts with Saquon in the backfield.

My thinking is that Jalen could have a monster night.

Okay. Let’s get on with the other props bets.

So 7.5% is left over.

What am I going to do with it? I haven’t yet decided but that’s okay.

I’ve got a week to figure it out.

I may put it back into my pocket.

I might decide to go with Hurts again.

I’m thinking of backing Jalen at +240 to get 60 or more rushing yards.

That’s a terrific player prop in my mind.

So Here’s the Process in a Nutshell.

• Decide the percentage of your total bankroll to bet on the Super Bowl based on your sports betting preference.
  At least 30% if you only bet on football.
• Assign half of your percentage on your straight bet, either the spread line, the moneyline, or the over/under total.
• Break up what’s left over after your straight bet on Super Bowl props.
  If you see value in a line, like what I see in Hurts to win SB MVP, bet half of what’s left over on it.

That’s the way I approach the Super Bowl.

One other thing, if you’re parlay bettor, go for it.

I’m not into betting parlays on the Super Bowl.

I like to make parlays that involve different games.

I’ve hit more parlays doing that then betting parlays on a single game but everybody is different and there’s no right or wrong way to profit betting on the Super Bowl.

Good luck!
