All-Time Super Bowl Spread Odds Betting History

Betting on the NFL’s biggest Sunday matchup requires skill and a basic knowledge of sports wagering. We’ve compiled the scores, ATS and OVER/UNDER results of each Super Bowl to date to help you handicap your bets.

What is the Super Bowl Spread?

The Super Bowl point spread is the number of points given or subtracted from either team to create a more even betting field. For instance, the odds for Super Bowl 54 could look something like this:

Since we don’t know which teams will play in the next Super Bowl, let’s pretend that the NFC squad is the favorite – you can tell this by the minus sign (-) that precedes their odds. The AFC team is the underdog – you can see this because of the plus sign (+) with their odds.

The boys from the NFC will need to win the game by four points or more, whereas the AFC crew would need to win the game outright or lose by three points or less.

Odds History for Spread and Totals Betting

Check out the Super Bowl odds history below, which shows definitively that the team that wins almost always covers the spread as well. This has not been scientifically proven – NASA is busy with other things – but if you look at the table below of the Super Bowl point spread and outright game winners, you’ll notice a pattern. You’ll also notice that the New England Patriots have made more appearances in the big game than any other team with 11, and the Pittsburgh Steelers trail closely behind with eight. The Pats have also covered the spread in seven of their trips to the Super Bowl.

The Super Bowl has gone to the dogs 23 times with the fave covering the spread 28 times. There have also been two PUSHES – when the score hits the oddsmaker’s set number exactly.

In this table, you’ll see that the totals are also listed (in parentheses). This is the combined score of each team where bettors would need to decide if the final score will be OVER or UNDER the oddsmaker’s set number.
