New England continues to be the choice of most Super Bowl bettors.
The offensively minded AFC champion is favored by a point or two and tons of money continues coming in on them, leaving sportsbooks in a precarious Super Bowl betting situation.
Sound familiar? That what the story a year ago when the Denver Broncos were favored big by the public but by only a point or two at the sportsbooks against Seattle.
Fast forward to today and the New England Patriots are the betting choice of more than 70 per cent of fans at some sportsbooks, according to Jack Randall of OddsShark.com.
"I know Bovada was seeing a steady stream of money, even though they had the biggest spread at -2 for the Patriots," he said today.
Will the ‘sharp' or professional bettors come in heavy on Super Bowl Sunday, hoping for a repeat performance of Super 48 when the Seahawks demolished Denver?
That turned into one of the biggest Super Bowl profits in history for Vegas and overseas sportsbooks.
The over-under continues to hover between a low of 47 at some shops and a high of 48 at others (among those tracked by OddsShark.com, SBNation's long-time odds partner).
The Odds Shark prediction computer has projected an OVER bet here with a surprisingly high-scoring game. It also predicted a near tie, with the Patriots winning by less than half a point, which would also translate to a Seattle cover.
