Super Bowl Preview For Sports Gamblers

Here is the official sports betting preview of the New York Giants-New England Patriots Super Bowl. The Giants come in 13-6 straight up and against the spread, but that's after starting out 0-2 in each category.

Sportsbooks have New England from an 11.5 to 12 point favorite, with the total ranging from 54-55.

New York has also won and covered their last 10 away from Giants Stadium. The Patriots, as you have probably heard, are 18-0 straight up. However, they have not been as profitable spreadwise, failing in 7-of-8.

It's also been a reversal of fortunes as far as the betting total. New England has gone under at a 4-1-1 rate after going over 10 of their first 12 games.

New York averages more yards per rush on offense by a margin of .2. The Patriots high powered attack of Tom Brady, Randy Moss and Wes Welker though average 8.0 yards per pass compared to 5.9 for Big Blue.

Defensively, the Giants have huge advantage in stopping the run allowing 3.8 yards per rush compared to 4.4 for the Pats. New York though allows .3 more yards per pass than their AFC counterparts.

Sports betting trends (all against the spread): The Giants have covered 7-of-8 after allowing less than 90 yards rushing last game. New England is 40-19 on grass.

Totals bettors will note that New York has gone under 44-19 after allowing less than 90 yards rushing last game. New England has gone under 9-3-1 as playoff favorites.

GodsTips, the anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com, is an outstanding 55-28 with all football Wise Guy plays (includes several moneyline dogs). They have a Wise Guy play on the Super Bowl side and total, plus several proposition plays for just $17.
