We are at the home stretch so let's get the discussion going. Even if you hate both teams with the power of a thousand suns, it's the last meaningful football game until September.
Patriots continue to hold a -3.5 spread. I have to believe this will go down as kickoff approaches.
Also, if you hate me for posting this, take joy in the fact that I just pulled 2/2 and 8/6 in my squares.

Surely you're not forgetting that juggernaut Northern Colorado at Utah game on August 30th? :)

Hmm no shit? I guess that matters a bit since it features a BCS conference team.

I can't imagine it'll fall below -3, or the books could just get crushed by middles. I could definitely see it going to like NYG +3 -125 though.

I think a few places already have it at -2.5.

I think plenty of places have it at -2.5. I love the U if the O/U holds at 55.

Yeah that Under is way too high. I am surprised it hasn't gone down at all since 4 seconds after NFC championship game.
Giants. Yankees. Terps.

I read that no SB has ever been decided by less than 3. So if you are taking the giants you might as well take them to win for more money, though you are obvi giving up the push.

Giants money line is currently +135.
I really thought it would be more than that.
MGM/Mirage has the Patriots -2.5
Most everyone else on the strip is Pats -3.0

Giants 20 Bills 19, in the Scott Norwood game? But 1 out of 45 is a good stat.

No, but it's bound to happen at some point... 4 of the NFL championship games played prior to the existence of the Super Bowl were decided by less than 3 points. Also, something like 8.21% of NFL games over the past 20 years have been decided by less than 3 points. So, the Super Bowl is definitely overdue for that close a game.
Edit: Doh, forgot about Giants-Bills. That's what I get for believing toogs.

Yeah, that IS a pretty sweet hat.
I can't remember the last time I cared this little about a Super Bowl.
