This was evident again this past year as the $154.7 million wagered on Super Bowl LIV at Nevada sportsbooks was the second-most all-time, only failing to beat 2018’s record $158 million. Super Bowl 53: Mystery 'Bettor X' lost almost $4M on Rams. The pain after their team's loss Sunday in the Super Bowl, but it could be worse — one person reportedly lost almost $4 million.
Well, good news NFL fans! If Las Vegas oddsmakers have any say in the outcome of Super Bowl 54 between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, then LIV in Miami has the chance to be quite the opposite.
Per BetMGM, the opening spread as of Monday morning has the Chiefs as just 1.5-point favorites, which means we’re looking at two evenly-matched teams. But I’m more excited about the over/under, which is a whopping 53.5 points.
That’s HUGE news right there. It’s a reminder we’re looking at a 49ers team that scored 27 points against the Minnesota Vikings and put up a 37 spot against the Green Bay Packers, and the Chiefs scored a combined 86 in their two playoff contests. So that 13-3 score seems like a reeeeeal longshot. Thank goodness!

Oh, and if you want my initial picks: I’m probably leaning toward the over in a 33-30 kind of game and taking the Chiefs (please note, I’m allowed to change my mind!). The 49ers moneyline at +100 is also the way to go (and keep an eye on it for movement).
