The truth is, it’s probably best to bet on your favorites as soon as the Super Bowl matchup is set. For most players, the odds will never be better ... unless the eventual Super Bowl MVP winner has a terrible first half, driving the odds down, and is then responsible for a massive comeback in the second half.
