1st Score of Super Bowl 51 Will Be Betting Prop
What will the 1st score of Super Bowl 51 be? A touchdown? A field goal? A safety? There’s a betting prop related to the first score.
A touchdown pays $10 if you bet $16.50 (you get that $16.50 refunded should your bet be a winner). A field goal or safety has great value, however, paying $13.50 for every $10 wagered.
It’s not just the price that makes a field goal a more lucrative option, it’s also the historic stats.
The first score has been a field goal in 22 Super Bowl games (48.9%).
By comparison, the first score has been a touchdown pass in 15 of the 45 Super Bowls (33.3%).
