Super Bowl LX will be played on Sunday, February 8, 2026 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, with kickoff scheduled for 6:30 p.m. ET. The matchup will be the AFC champion vs the NFC champion, and the teams will not be finalized until the conference championships are complete later in January, so the best way to attack props right now is to build a repeatable process instead of locking into player names too early.
What “Super Bowl props” actually cover
Super Bowl props go far beyond the standard spread and total. You’ll see novelty markets tied to pregame moments, game-level props tied to how the matchup plays out, and player props tied to usage and role. The reason this board is so popular is simple: props let you stay invested in every drive, every third down, and every red-zone snap, even if the side or total isn’t worth playing.
Novelty props: fun, but price-sensitive
Novelty props include things like the coin toss result, anthem length, and the winning coach’s Gatorade color. These markets are often posted early and move fast because bettors pile in on narratives and historical comps. If you want to take novelty props seriously, treat them like any other bet: convert the price into implied probability and decide whether the payout matches the true chance of the outcome, using the math approach explained on Parlay Calculator Math and the value framing on Parlay Calculator Value.
Player props: where most serious money goes
Player props are the main event because they’re driven by volume, game script, and matchups. Passing yards, rushing yards, receiving yards, receptions, longest completion, anytime touchdown, and first touchdown scorer are usually the most liquid markets. The simplest edge comes from role certainty: players with locked-in snaps, routes, or red-zone usage tend to be more reliable than volatile “big play” options, especially when the Super Bowl tightens rotations and funnels touches to the core pieces.
Game-script props: bet the story you actually believe
If you expect a fast start, markets like first-quarter points, first team to score, or first-half team totals can match that script better than full-game bets. If you expect a slower start with heavier adjustments, second-half and live angles can outperform because the market has to reprice quickly in a high-leverage setting. The key is to commit to one script and stack props that logically fit it, instead of mixing a “grind” script with overs across the board.
Same-game prop parlays: higher payout, higher tax
Super Bowl Sunday is prime time for correlated betting, and books know it. If you’re building same-game parlays around a specific script, make sure you understand how quickly risk compounds when you stack legs. Use the Parlay Payout Calculator to sanity-check the payout, then use the structure on Same Game Parlays and Prop Parlays to keep your combinations logical instead of random. If you find yourself adding legs just to “juice the payout,” you’re usually paying the highest tax on the board.
When the matchup is set, this is the quickest way to build a prop card
Start with the expected pace and pass/run tendency, then identify which positions the opponent is most likely to concede. Translate that into two or three core player props that match usage, then decide whether you want exposure through straight props or a small, disciplined parlay. If you’re parlaying prices, keep it clean and understand the mechanics using Moneyline Parlay for moneyline-style legs and Over/Under Parlay when you’re stacking totals-based legs.
The bottom line for Super Bowl LX props
Super Bowl props are the biggest menu of the year, but that doesn’t mean you need to eat everything. The best cards are tight: a few bets where role and script align, sized responsibly, and priced with discipline. Once the matchup is finalized and the main prop board posts, the softest numbers won’t last long, so be ready to act when your script, your number, and the market price all line up.
