Super Bowl Over/Under history
Super Bowl points were hard to come by back in the day.
In the 1970s, projected Super Bowl totals were routinely in the 30s, and rightfully so. For instance, Super Bowl VII had a final score of Miami 14 - Washington 7.
Super Bowl XIX between the 49ers and Dolphins had the first “modern” Over/Under. That game had a projected total of 53.5 and the fireworks lived up to the hype. The game went Over with a final score of 49ers 38 - Dolphins 16.
The total has gone Over the projected number in the past two years. Under bettors had a nice little streak going recently, however, as it hit from 2019 - 2022.
