With the legalization of sports betting in many parts of the US, the Super Bowl is expected to retain its reputation as one of the most popular events for betting enthusiasts.
Prop bets are highly prevalent for Super Bowls in addition to the customary odds for the big game.
In West Virginia, residents can enjoy multiple online sports betting apps, providing a range of propositional markets that encompass a vast array of options.
Props are enjoyable since they often revolve around subjects that are not commonly wagered on. Although online sportsbooks usually offer a variety of team, game, and player props for NFL matches, they do not match the extensive listings available for the Super Bowl.
In West Virginia, every online platform offers a wide array of prop bets for you to wager on until Sunday. Whether it’s predicting the outcome of a coin toss or guessing the jersey number of the first touchdown scorer, WV sportsbooks cater to every bettor with their diverse prop options.
We will analyze the various online sportsbooks available in the state and assess the most intriguing prop bets offered by each for betting on the Super Bowl in WV.
DraftKings Sportsbook
DraftKings Sportsbook WV consistently leads the way in offering a wide range of prop bets on a regular basis. Currently, the online sportsbook provides numerous Super Bowl markets for users to explore and select from.
In addition to the familiar props, DraftKings offers an abundance of unconventional alternatives.
An attention-grabbing novelty prop known as Fat Man TD stands out from the rest. With this prop, you have the opportunity to place bets on whether a lineman will successfully score a touchdown during the game.
Bettors have the option to place bets on offensive linemen scoring at +2000 odds, while offensive or defensive linemen are available at +800 odds.
The Chicago Bears and their fans may not appreciate another entertaining prop. DraftKings customers can now place bets on the Doink Special, which predicts if any field goal or extra point attempt will strike the upright or crossbar during the game.
The Yes option is available at +375, whereas the No option has odds of -590.
There is a possibility of an onside kick occurring at the end of the fourth quarter if the game is close. Additionally, teams have been observed attempting onside kicks after the Super Bowl halftime.
DraftKings offers odds of +1700 for either team to successfully recover an onside kick. Those participating in this proposition bet have the opportunity to further wager on the opening kick resulting in a touchdown, with odds of +5000.
FanDuel Sportsbook
In addition to that, FanDuel Sportsbook WV offers a wide range of prop bets for Super Bowl LV betting as well.
The online sportsbook has a dedicated section solely for penalty props, and one particularly captivating option is predicting the distance of the longest penalty called.
Currently, there is an option to place a bet on whether the longest penalty enforced during the game will exceed 15.5 yards. The over bet carries odds of +120, while the under bet for 15.5 yards has odds of -155.
The intriguing aspect of this prop lies in the fact that only one penalty can determine the outcome of this bet. Despite personal foul calls being limited to just 15 yards, bettors would require a pass interference call in order to emerge victorious.
If a defensive pass interference occurs, the penalty is determined by the spot foul, meaning the yardage is dependent on where the infraction took place. In the case of over backers, a pass interference penalty will only be called if the violation occurs at a minimum of 16 yards down the field.
Given the consistent passing game of quarterbacks Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes, it wouldn’t be unexpected if this proposition is achieved.
At FanDuel, you have the opportunity to place bets on the quarterback who will have more passing yards in the Super Bowl. Mahomes is the favored choice with odds of -155, while Brady has slightly higher odds at +120.
Last week, Mahomes accumulated 325 passing yards, while Brady contributed 280 yards in the Bucs’ triumph against Green Bay.
It appears that FanDuel anticipates early scoring in Sunday’s game, allowing customers to place bets on whether both teams will score before punting.
Kansas City has a -120 listing for scoring, while they have -105 odds for punting. In contrast, Tampa Bay has equal odds of -115 for either scoring or punting first.
BetMGM Sportsbook
Super Bowl props are plentiful at BetMGM Sportsbook WV as well.
In addition to a wide range of familiar game and team props, the online sportsbook offers a unique section dedicated to cross-game betting. These prop markets set themselves apart by combining odds from two distinct sports.
As an illustration, you have the option to place a bet on either Brady throwing a higher number of touchdown passes or Alexander Ovechkin scoring more points during the Capitals game against the Flyers on Sunday.
According to BetMGM, Brady is listed as the frontrunner with odds of -250, while Ovechkin’s odds stand at +200.
Mike Evans from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Alexandre Lacazette, a forward for the English soccer club Arsenal, are also part of another prop.
In the upcoming game, the online sportsbook predicts Evans to have a slight advantage in scoring more touchdowns compared to Lacazette’s goals. Evans is listed as a favorite with odds of -115, while Lacazette’s odds stand at -105.
BetMGM offers Super Bowl props that even golf fans can enjoy. You can place bets on whether Brady will throw more interceptions than the number of holes in one at the Waste Management Phoenix Open this weekend.
Brady’s odds at the sportsbook are -115 while the number of aces at the golf tournament is listed at -105.
William Hill Sportsbook
Naturally, the coin toss is always a highly anticipated prop bet during the Super Bowl. Rest assured, William Hill WV has a range of prop options for you to explore regarding the opening coin flip.
Both the Chiefs and Bucs offer odds of -101 for betting on whether the coin will land on heads or tails. Additionally, bettors can also place their bets on which team will win the toss, with both teams having the same odds of -101.
The online sportsbook provides a player proposition bet for the individual who will score the initial points in the game. In contrast to first-touchdown markets, both kickers are favored with the highest odds to be the first to contribute points.
