Super Bowl XLVII Odds and Ends - Baltimore vs. San Francisco

USA TODAY Sports

Here is a list of some initial of the initial prop bets for Super Bowl XLVII, which combine elements related to the actual game with some of the entertainment aspects. The odds and ends are listed below; feel free to comment on as many of them as you wish. Here are some of my thoughts:

  • I'm banking on the Alicia Keys finishing at about 2:20 for the over. I don't see her being booed at any point, and while I don't think she'll omit any words, I think she'll add one (or at least something that sounds like one).
  • I don't think there is any chance that the Harbaugh parents are wearing something affiliated toward a specific team. I think we'll go way above the over on both Jack Harbaugh being shown and the number of times the game is referred to as the Hawbowl. I'll take the under on the post-game handshake/hug between the brothers; they'll have plenty of time to catch up later at some point.
  • I'll go with the orange Gatorade being used on the winning coach. The winning Super Bowl MVP will thank his teammates first...unless it's Ray Lewis. He'll go way above the over on mentioning God. Lastly, Randy Moss will not retire before the start of next season.
