2012 Super Bowl Props to Avoid
by Aaron Smith - 2/3/2012

As the popularity of the Super Bowl continues to grow, the books have found that prop betting on the big game is a major money maker. Throughout the season there may be a few bettors here and there who are focusing on props, but that pales in comparison to the focus that comes on these wagers on Super Bowl Sunday. These prop bets started with simple bets such as rushing or passing yardage for an individual player, but as the popularity of prop betting has gained the number of offerings has multiplied infinitely.

2012 Alternate Super Bowl Lines
by Nicholas Tolomeo - 2/2/2012

If you do not agree with the oddsmakers, alternate Super Bowl lines give you the bettor a chance to make your own line, sort of. For the Super Bowl there are a number of different alternate lines for both the side and total. Instead of New England -3 and a total of 53, the side and total are adjusted and so is the juice and payout.

We're down to the final game of this NFL season, No. 267, excluding the make-believe of the preseason and the farce that is the Pro Bowl.

Super Bowl Handicapping: Media Day Hyperbole
by Trevor Whenham - 2/1/2012

Is it just me or did Media Day seem to lose some of its shine this year? It's always a big spectacle, but it has increasingly gotten more and more ridiculous, and it seems like it was less relevant than ever before as a result. Of course, it didn't help that the game is in Indianapolis so Peyton Manning is overshadowing everything that happens.

Super Bowl Quarterback Props: Betting Odds and Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 1/31/2012

The biggest stars in this Super Bowl, like in virtually every Super Bowl, are the quarterbacks. Tom Brady is as big as a star can be, and Eli Manning has climbed to a whole new level of esteem with his performance down the stretch and in the playoffs. It's not oversimplifying the game too much to say that the player who plays best will lead his game to the win.

Super Bowl Props Betting: Rushing and Running Back Props Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 1/30/2012

The running backs are a bit of an afterthought when you think about Super Bowl XLVI. Neither the Giants nor the Patriots are particularly great running teams, and that is in large part because both are so effective through the air. Neither of these defenses is particularly good at stopping the run, though, so there is a chance that the teams could gain some momentum on the ground if they choose to pursue that.

by Aaron Smith - 1/27/2012

Super Bowl MVP Odds and Predictions
by Robert Ferringo - 1/26/2012

It is no secret that the NFL has become almost solely a quarterback-driven league.

Super Bowl Halftime Betting: Advice and Strategy
by Trevor Whenham - 1/26/2012

There are a lot of reasons not to be sober by the time halftime rolls around in the Super Bowl, but there is at least one good reason for value-loving bettors to keep their head until then. Halftime is, of course, when you can make halftime bets. Those bets don't get nearly as much attention as the full game lines or totals or the prop bets, but they quite possibly offer more value than any of those other options.

All season long we have been trying to hammer the book with our 'best bets' on the total line in the NFL and did a fairly good job with an overall record of 29-20-2.

2012 Super Bowl Rematch: Betting Trends and Comparison
by Trevor Whenham - 1/24/2012

We're early in the build up to the Super Bowl, but the biggest storyline so far has been that this game, Super Bowl XLVI, is a rematch of the Super Bowl XLII, which was won by the Giants 17-14 thanks to one of the least likely catches we have seen in years. The fact that these teams met in the same game just four years ago ultimately won't be the biggest controlling factor in the outcome of the game, but it's an interesting factor to look at. Let's dissect the Super Bowl rematch from four different angles:

2012 Super Bowl Predictions
by Trevor Whenham - 1/24/2012

I'll be honest - I did not predict that the New York Giants would be playing in the Super Bowl. Not even close. The 49ers were my team from the start, and the fact that they aren't there is a clear lesson in how brutal and hard to handicap the NFL can be - ultimately I was wrong because San Francisco's backup punt returner wasn't good enough.

Of course, I also will add one caveat: always wait until the last minute to get those bets down.
