Betting on the 2010 Super Bowl

Betting on the 2010 Super Bowl is full of opportunities where the line is concerned as it has become especially fluid heading into Thursday morning.

Sportsbetting.com won't budge off the Saints at +6.  Yet around 75 percent of the online sportsbooks had moved the line down to Colts -4 ½ by late Wednesday night.  A handful also had the line at -5.

68 percent of those betting on the 2010 Super Bowl spread between the Saints and Colts were backing Indianapolis, that's down 5 percent off of Tuesday's peak 72 percent. 

Money line action was relatively even with around 55 percent of the betting public believing that New Orleans can win outright.  The payout would be $17 for every $10 bet.

The total moved a half point up from 56.5 to 57 with close to 75 percent of the backing on the OVER.
