When Will Super Bowl Game Odds Become Available?

The final horn sounds, teams celebrate victories in their respective conference championship games, and the journey to Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas begins in earnest. And while the squads involved will wait two weeks before kicking off in the NFL’s championship game, sports bettors can get in on the action almost immediately.

Once the conference championship games end, Super Bowl odds are released rather quickly, with the exact timing dependent upon the particular sportsbook. By the Monday following the conference championship games, all major sportsbooks will have Super Bowl odds posted, the beginning of a cascade of nearly countless wager types that will be released leading up to the NFL’s big title clash on Feb. 11.

And they won’t just be your traditional single-game wagers like moneyline, total and spread bets—Super Bowl betting sites pull out all the stops for the NFL’s championship game, with available wagers on nearly everything imaginable. With good reason, given that the Super Bowl is the most bet-on sports event in the United States, with an estimated 50 million adults wagering on the game last season.

Promo Codes and Bonus Bets

New users can also take advantage of something else offered by sportsbooks: Super Bowl betting promos, which typically offer first-time customers bonus bets that they can use to wager on the NFL title game or any other sporting event. Also known as promo codes, these offers sometime require an actual code (available through the sportsbook) to unlock; otherwise, new users will receive them automatically upon registration.

The best sportsbook promo codes can come in several different forms – some match the amount of your initial deposit, others give users a certain amount in bonus bets after they make an initial wager of a specific amount, others guard against a lost first bet. In every case, users must be at least 21 years old and physically in a state with legal sports betting to take advantage.

A Plethora of Prop Bets

While Super Bowl futures are available all year, the day after the championship games is when sportsbooks get serious about offering bets specifically tailored to the title clash itself. With each passing day between the conference title games and Super Bowl LVIII, NFL betting apps will release more and more bets related to the big game.

A mainstay of Super Bowl betting is the avalanche of Super Bowl prop bets, more than bettors will find at any time of year. Result of the coin flip? Length of the national anthem? Users will discover all kinds of unique and perhaps strange props in addition to the usual types like anytime touchdowns and passing or rushing totals.

The hundreds of bet types that sportsbooks make available for the NFL’s championship game may seem like a lot to sift through, but learning how to bet on the Super Bowl isn’t that different from wagering on any other NFL contest—users just have more options, more time to go through them. It all starts after the conference championship games, when the eventual flood of Super Bowl bets begins. And unlike the players, sports bettors won’t have to wait two weeks to get in on the action.
