When taking a look at the 2008 Superbowl betting odds, pick the favorite. You are on the plus side if you took the favorite minus the points in every Super Bowl ever played. It is not a huge percentage, but the favorites have covered more than the dogs. You can throw the over right in there with the favorites.
Good luck and best wishes.
It looks like the favorite has covered the point spread in a small majority of Super Bowls. I count 22 times (out of 41 games total) on this chart: NFL Super Bowl Betting Line History.
However, the trend hasn't held up recently. While the favorite beat the line last year, it didn't cover in the five years before that. And three of those games involved the New England Patriots (who won by just 3 points each time).
I hope you didn't put too much money on the Patriots...
