Super Bowl Betting Trends Emerge with Big Wagers Going Down

After the American Gaming Association proffered a guess that as much as $1.39 billion may be wagered legally on Super Bowl 2025, sportsbooks are scrambling to make the most out of this.

Huge Betting Volume Expected for Super Bowl 2025

Exploring BetMGM’s most intriguing picks for the year, the betting markets offer a fascinating glimpse into the mindset of the average bettor. For example, someone is betting on the Eagles +110 to win, plonking down $800,000.

The Eagles seem to be rightly the underdog after they already suffered at the hands of the Chiefs in the previous title game bout between the two teams in 2023, losing by a mere 3-point difference. The Eagles have also done slightly worse than the Chiefs this season but are still close enough contenders to elicit some pretty strong wagers.

Another interesting bet that is featured by BetMGM is whether Travis Kelce would propose to Taylor Swift, his girlfriend who has backed him in his career since the two came together as a couple in 2023.

The “no” however is fixed at -2000, suggesting that the public opinion is heavily stacked against the possibility. Swifties have not taken too kindly to Kelce’s outbursts. This means that anyone betting on the yes might reap a decent payday. In the meantime, other trends go well beyond BetMGM’s data.

In places such as Ontario, for example, the Responsible Gambling Council seems to suggest that people who watch the Super Bowl game will be betting in droves – with nearly 50% of all viewers placing a wager. Ontario allows online sports betting and iGaming in the state.

Once again, based on the study, it’s estimated that 10% of all bettors will account for all losses registered by sports bettors during the title game betting bonanza. The Responsible Gambling Council CEO, Sarah McCarthy, has cautioned locals against getting overly excited about the upcoming weekend and taking things in moderation.

More Big Wagers Going Down with Biggest Sportsbooks

In the meantime, the Kansas City Chiefs also managed to fetch a big wager – with a $300,000 moneyline placed on the team at -130 odds to win. In other news, a DraftKings bettor also placed $150,000 on the Philadelphia Eagles, with the underdog once again seemingly drawing the larger wagers.

In the meantime, a bettor placed $110,000 on the totals of the Chiefs and Eagles not scoring over 49.5 points. A BetRivers customer bet against an Octopus being scored in the Super Bowl for $51,000.
