How long will it take Carrie Underwood to sing the national anthem?- The  over/under is set at one minute and 42 seconds on this one. Last year, it was at two minutes and three seconds for Jennifer Hudson, so this is considerably shorter - perhaps too shorter. Based on no research - and I refuse to do any on this prop - I would have to lean to the ‘over’.

Alternate spread of +14.5 on the Saints - What I want to know is who in the world would take this one. It's not that I don't think it will happen - I think the Saints will win outright. I just don't understand why anyone would pay -350 in any situation unless they absolutely had to.

Will there be a missed extra point? - A little math here shows you just how bad the ‘yes’ bet would be on this one. There were 1,185 extra points attempted in the regular season this year. Just 20 were missed. That means that 98.3 percent of extra points were successful. That means that +1000, the price paid if an extra point is missed, is a long, long way from providing any value.

First sideline reporter to appear after kickoff - This one is just a glorified coin flip - allbeit an expensive one. The price for both Solomon Wilcots and Steve Tasker is at -115, so the price can only be called generous if you own a sports book. The only reason I would be interested in anything about the sideline reporters is if Melissa Stark was back in action.

Color of Gatorade dumped on the winning coach - This is another one of those crazy props that could only exist for the Super Bowl. For the record, yellow is favored at 1/1, with clear water a close second at 7/5. Red is the longshot of the six choices at 25/2. A quick Google image search didn't turn up a picture of either coach getting doused so I can't say what the teams are working with this year, but Tony Dungy was drenched with water the last time the Colts were here.

Number of times Archie Manning will be shown during game - The total here is 2.5, so in my eyes the ‘over’ is a stone cold lock. I think they'll go ‘over’ before the first points are on the board. I'm obviously not the only one who thinks so, either - the over is at an unattractive -150. You make make the same bet with Eli as well. We'll see him almost as much as Archie - especially if Peyton has a big day. At -105 on the ‘over’ that's an attractive bet.

How many times will CBS show Bourbon Street during the game - The total is only two here, and the ‘over’ is only at -110. That's like stealing money. I would still be tempted to take the ‘over’ if the total was set at six. TV producers are not known for their subtlety or creativity, so shots of Bourbon Street are going to show up early and often.

Kim Kardashian - There are several props involving Kardashian, Reggie Bush's girlfriend, but I refuse to acknowledge any of them. The entire Kardashian clan just needs to go away, but that will obviously never happen if we keep paying attention to them.

Will a member of The Who smash a guitar? - Can you use a walker and still smash a guitar? I can't figure out how The Who ever got this gig in the first place, and I certainly can't imagine that these geezers will have the energy left after their set to do anything other than take a nap. Fr the record, ‘yes’ is at +135, and ‘no’ is at -165. To discuss this and other sports or gambling related topic please join us on our popular posting forums at
