In the world of prop bets, picking the Super Bowl MVP is king.
It’s not guessing the apparel of the national anthem singer, what color the sportsdrink will be in the victorious celebration, or how many plays Tony Romo will correctly predict — good luck scoring that one, poor sportsbook employee — but choosing the most valuable player has that perfect mix of luck and skill attached to it. There’s far less randomness attached to it than a coin toss. After 52 Super Bowls, we have some idea about how these things go. And yet, it doesn’t feel like it requires a deep amount of football knowledge.
