Super Bowl Cross Betting – Warner and Lebron in the Same Bet

January 30, 2009

The Superbowl ain’t enough, you say? How dare you! BetOnline is letting you bet on prop bets between the Superbowl and UFC 94, the PGA and even the NBA betting lines. So let’s break it down for you degenerates who simply can’t get enough. Lord knows that I can’t either!

SUPERBOWL XLII VS. UFC 94

What will have more: Tapouts or Touchdowns?

Don’t forget, this goes for tapouts on the card. There are a slew of dark matches that are going to factor in to this. We’re going to go with a soft mark and say that the Steelers-Cardinals put up three or four touchdowns in this game. Are you saying that that less than half the matches in the UFC card are going to go the distance or end in KO? Are you serious? Get out of here.

Furious Free Pick: Tapouts in UFC 94

What will have more: Fights Going The Distance or Field Goals?

Field goals. Easily. Both defenses will keep teams out of the endzone, and maybe two of these fights are going the distance at UFC 94. That’s the easiest money at the board at -120.

SUPERBOWL XLIII VS. THE BOSTON CELTICS

1st Half Superbowl XLIII vs. Kevin Garnett

Prop Line: Superbowl -6.5

The First half of the Superbowl is going to be tight. So take KG here to explode in the face of Al Jefferson. He’s getting 6.5-points! He’ll end that day with 17-20 points easily, and then he has a cushion to boot. I’m taking the Big Ticket to cash in at -120.

Kurt Warner TD+INT vs. Ray Allen 3 Point Shots Made

Prop Line: PK

I’m thinking that Warner puts up something like two touchdowns (maybe) and two picks. So we’re hovering around the total mark of four. Ray Allen has gone 14-of-21 in his last five games from beyond the arc, meaning he’s averaging just less than 5 per game. I’m going to bank on Ray Ray here since fumbles don’t count. It’s the Steel Curtain for god’s sake!

SUPERBOWL XLIII VS. NHL HOCKEY

Larry Fitzgerald Touchdowns vs. Alexander Ovechkin Goals

The Capitals play the Senators, and Ovechkin has the chance to get at least two goals in this game. Fitzgerald is going to be covered in a blanket of terrible towels and Pittsburgh Steelers secondary, so his chances of getting more than one touchdown are slim. I would side with Alexander The Great on this one, considering how porous the Senators’ defense is.

Punters vs. Canada

Basically what they’re saying is that there will be more punts in the Superbowl than goals combined by the three Canadian hockey teams in action. Those would be the Edmonton Oilers, Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens. I’m going to go with punts here because everyone loves a kicker!

BEN ROETHLISBERGER / KURT WARNER VS. LEBRON JAMES

Completions vs. Field Goal Attempts

The line is set at -2.5 for Kurt Warner. And considering that LeBron averages 21.0 field goal attempts per game in his career, and Warner puts up 20.5 completions per game, this is going to be tight. I’d go with LeBron trying to steal the show on Superbowl Sunday instead of Kurt Warner against the best pass defense in the NFL, especially with that 2.5-completion cushion.

LeBron James Points + Assists over Steelers + Cardinals Points -12.5

Is that not the easiest money you’ve ever seen? At -115 you have to take it!
