The Super Bowl LX matchup has been set, and the Seattle Seahawks are favored over the New England Patriots. The game will be played on Sunday, Feb. 8, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, and will draw the most betting action in a single day in American sports this year.
It’s the most unlikely Super Bowl matchup in at least 50 years, as the Seahawks (60-1 preseason at BetMGM) and Patriots (80-1) were both long shots to win the big game. Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (+115) is the favorite to win Super Bowl LX MVP at sportsbooks.

4:15 p.m. ET: A couple interesting wagers have come in over the past few hours, most notably a two-leg $280,000 parlay at Hard Rock Bet that would pay a little over $1.62 million. The bettor wagered on:
-
Patriots team total over 20.5 points
We also saw a $315,000 wager on the Patriots money line at +205 odds come in at Station Casinos in Las Vegas. Most sportsbooks are still rooting for a Seattle win, but New England cover.
“We’ve seen a couple six-figure wagers on Seattle -4.5,” Thomas Gable, sportsbook director at The Borgata in Atlantic City told Yahoo Sports on Sunday afternoon. “We will need New England to cover. A boring, defensive game would be great for props.”
1:30 p.m. ET: Seattle wide receiver Cooper Kupp is the biggest liability to win Super Bowl LX MVP at several sportsbooks, including BetMGM, where he is down to 66-1 after having 250-1 odds to win the award heading into the NFC championship game. Kupp had 4.7% of the wagers and 3.2% of the total dollars wagered in the MVP market, as of Sunday morning.

“Our largest liability [to win Super Bowl LX MVP] comes from Super Bowl 53 MVP winner Cooper Kupp, with punters backing him to repeat his heroics this year,” Neil Walsh, SVP of sportsbook at Hard Rock Bet, said.
11 a.m. ET: The betting public and larger wagers continue to flow in on the Seahawks at most sportsbooks across the country, as we count down to kickoff of Super Bowl LX. At the Score Bet, DraftKings and BetMGM, roughly 60% of the wagers are on Seattle -4.5, along with 60% of the money. Some New England money has come in at BetMGM, as only 51% of the total dollars wagered on the spread are on the Seahawks — a lower number than several books.
Some big wagers came in on Saturday on the Seahawks, including a $152,000 wager on the Seahawks money line at -230 odds at Caesars and a $250,000 wager on the Seahawks money line at -230 odds at Hard Rock Bet.
“We are definitely New England fans,” John Murray, Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook sports and race director told Yahoo Sports.

One bettor at Caesars also put down an interesting wager: $142,000 on an alternate line of Patriots +14.5 at -526 odds. The wager would win nearly $27,000 if New England can keep the game within two touchdowns.
Here are the five most popular Super Bowl LX prop bets (by total tickets) at BetMGM currently:
1. Kenneth Walker III Over 20.5 receiving yards
2. Drake Maye Over 35.5 rushing yards
3. Stefon Diggs Over 4.5 receptions
4. Drake Maye Over 0.5 INTs
5. Sam Darnold Over 1.5 passing TDs
Bettors are also loading up on the Seahawks in parlays, as 21.3% of all parlays at Hard Rock Bet include the Seattle money line.

Friday, Feb. 6
The coin toss one of the simplest wagers that any bettor can make on the Super Bowl — and one of the earliest to be determined every year. Despite thousands of ways to bet the big game now available at sportsbooks, the coin toss always is one of the prop bets with the most overall handle.
And one bettor is hoping that tails never fails.
A bettor at Caesars in Iowa wagered $100,000 on tails at -103 odds, which is the largest bet to date on the coin toss.
Tails has come up 31 times to heads’ 28 in the 59 Super Bowls so far.
Wednesday, Feb. 4
The first seven-figure wager has come in on the Seattle Seahawks to win Super Bowl LX — and it’s for a good cause.

Dan Newlin, a Florida attorney, announced that he wagered $1 million on the Seahawks ML at -230 odds at Hard Rock Bet to benefit pediatric cancer research. He came up with the idea as “a way of leveraging America’s love of sports betting to support a good cause.”

Newlin will donate any winnings from the wager to Nemours Children’s Hospital to help support research, and per a press release, will also continue to make donations “regardless of the outcome of this wager.”
Hard Rock Bet did not move the line after the wager and told Yahoo Sports that the sportsbook has about 70% of the handle on the money line on Seattle.

The Super Bowl LX spread remains relatively unchanged, with most of the market still at Seattle -4.5, but there has been a little more movement on the total — a few sportsbooks in Vegas are down to 45.
“Currently, we need the Patriots and the under, but most of the money is still to come,” Halvor Egeland, BetMGM trading strategy manager told Yahoo Sports. “I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re in a position on Sunday where we’ll want the Seahawks money line but a Patriots cover as our best result.”
We’ve also seen some long-shot wagers come in for Super Bowl LX MVP, including two at BetRivers on kickers. One bettor wagered $1,000 on Patriots kicker Andres Borregales to win MVP at 300-1 odds, which would win a staggering $310,000. A $1,000 wager on Seahawks kicker Jason Myers at 100-1 (to win $100,000) was also placed at BetRivers.

A kicker has never won Super Bowl MVP.
One other interesting Super Bowl MVP bet at BetRivers: $4,630 on Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson to win Super Bowl MVP at 28-1 odds for a potential win of $129,640.
Sunday, Feb. 1
Super Bowl LX is still a week away, but the early action from the betting public is clearly in favor of the Seahawks. The line has settled at Seahawks -4.5 at most books, with a few out in Vegas sitting Seahawks -5. At theScore Bet, 69% of wagers and nearly 75% of the handle has come in on Seattle to cover the 4.5-point spread, and those betting splits are similar at other books as well.

“It’s been heavy traffic on the Seahawks in pretty much all markets,” Adrian Horton, senior director of North American sports trading at theScore Bet, said in a statement. “Not just spread and money line, but at the top of all our TD scorer and player prop markets too. Coming off of the conference championships, bettors are clearly backing Seattle to have a big day.”

The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook released its annual Super Bowl prop packet on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. PT, lighting up the odds screen with hundreds of ways to wager on the big game.

Yahoo Sports checked in with Casey Degnon, SuperBook risk manager, and he gave six prop bets that received some sharp action on opening night:

-
RB TreVeyon Henderon under 4.5 receiving yards (-110)
-
Total number of Seahawks with a rushing attempt: Over 4.5 (-110)
-
Will there be a 2-pt conversion attempt? No (-140)
-
RB Rhamondre Stevenson over 2.5 receptions (-140)
-
WR Jake Bob under 0.5 receiving yards (-140)
-
Distance of first field goal made over 36.5 yards (-110)
It’s early, but the betting public continues to wager on the Seahawks to cover in Super Bowl LX. In the biggest event of the year, bettors are pulling for the Seahawks while the book hopes for a low-scoring affair with minimal touchdowns,” Christian Cipollini, a BetMGM trading manager, said in a release. “While there’s still some time before the game, it looks like the game and futures market will be rewarding to bettors if the Seahawks cover the game and win outright.”
Wednesday, Jan. 28
The largest reported futures wager (by total bet amount) now belongs to Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale, the Houston furniture salesman known for placing large sports wagers tied to promotions for his Gallery Furniture store.
Mattress Mack wagered $2 million on the AFC to win Super Bowl 60 at +200 odds last week at Caesars Sportsbook before the AFC and NFC championship games were played. The wager was first reported by ESPN and confirmed to Yahoo Sports by the sportsbook.

The wager now is effectively a bet on the New England Patriots to win the Super Bowl at +200 odds, and would win $4 million.
According to ESPN’s David Purdum, Mattress Mack is also running a promotion with his store in which customers who spend $4,000 will get their money back if the Patriots win Super Bowl 60.
There were no reported $1 million wagers at legal U.S. sportsbooks on last year’s Super Bowl between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, but this is the second reported seven-figure wager — and both have come on the underdog Patriots.
Bettors are loading up on the under for Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III, as Walker’s rushing yards prop is the most-bet prop by total wagers among all Super Bowl LX prop bets at BetMGM. Walker’s total rushing yards has decreased from an opener of 78.5 yards down to 73.5, and over 95% of the wagers and money wagered are on the under.

Walker had 19 carries in both of Seattle’s playoff games, and went over this total (116 yards) against San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round and under this total (62 yards) against the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC championship game.
Seattle WR Jaxson Smith-Njigba (-115) is the most popular player to score a touchdown, followed by the Seahawks special teams/defense (+380) at BetMGM.

Legal Sports Report released its annual projection of Super Bowl wagering at legal U.S. sportsbooks, estimating that $1.71 billion will be wagered on the big game across 41 states and territories — an estimated 10.3% increase in handle from last year.

“This year’s big game will continue the streak of record Super Bowl handle for the regulated U.S. market,” LSR analyst Eric Ramsey said in a press release. “Missouri’s recent launch pads an already favorable outlook for a weekend that serves as the single biggest opportunity of the year for legal sportsbooks and bettors alike.”
Monday, Jan. 26
The first seven-figure Super Bowl LX wager came in at Circa Sports in Nevada, as sportsbook director Jeff Benson reported a bettor had wagered $1.1 million on the New England Patriots money line at +188 odds, and that the wager would win roughly $2.1 million.
Sunday, Jan. 25
The Seahawks were 3.5-point favorites against the Patriots in lookahead lines at sportsbooks, but the Super Bowl LX line opened anywhere from -3.5 to -5 at sportsbooks, and the early betting was mostly on Seattle. The total went from 46.5 down to 46.

“We opened Seahawks -4 and a total of 46.5, and we’ve been getting one-way action on Seattle,” Jeff Sherman, vice president of risk at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, said in text message Sunday night. “We’re at -4.5 now.”
Notable futures wagers
-
Back in August 2025, as first reported by Yahoo Sports, a bettor at BetMGM wagered $150,000 on three Seattle Seahawks futures bets:
-
$50,000 on the Seahawks to win Super Bowl 60 at 60-1 odds to win $3 million
-
$50,000 on the Seahawks to win NFC at 28-1 odds to win $1.4 million
-
$50,000 on the Seahawks to make playoffs at +185 odds to win $92,500
-
Yahoo Sports also reported Circa Sports in Nevada took two sizable wagers at 75-1 odds on the Seahawks to win Super Bowl 60, both with “seven-figure liability” in late August from a new customer as well. Seattle is the sportsbook’s worst futures outcome as a result.
-
A bettor at Circa also had quite the lottery ticket wager before the season, placing a $100 wager on Aug. 25 on an exact Super Bowl result of the Patriots to defeat the Seahawks at 3,100-1 odds. The wager would win $310,000 if Drake Maye and Co. are victorious.
-
The largest reported futures wager at U.S. sportsbooks on the Patriots was at DraftKings where Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy wagered $50,000 on New England at 35-1 odds back sometime in October 2025. The wager would win $1.75 million.
-
Another bettor at DraftKings was a very early believer, wagering $10,000 on New England to win Super Bowl LX at 80-1 odds all the way back on Jan. 21, 2025. The bet would win $800,000.
-
Mattress Mack placed a $2 million wager on the AFC to win Super Bowl 60 at +200 odds at Caesars Sportsbook before the championship games were played. The bet would win $4 million if the Patriots beat the Seahawks.
