We’re less than a week away from Super Bowl LX<\/a> between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots, the most unlikely Super Bowl matchups<\/a> we’ve ever seen from a preseason odds perspective.<\/p>\n

The Seahawks are currently 4.5-point favorites at most sportsbooks (with a few 5s out there) and a total of 45.5 at BetMGM<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are many large wagers out there, including a $2 million bet from Mattress Mack on the Patriots at +200 (to win $4 million) and a $50,000 wager on the Seahawks to win Super Bowl 60 at 60-1 odds from a BetMGM bettor from August that would win $3 million. We’re keeping track of all of them in this file<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But it is the Super Bowl after all, which means the people want picks. And who better to give that than the oddsmakers booking all the action themselves.<\/p>\n

Yahoo Sports reached out to a dozen oddsmakers from Las Vegas and around the country and asked which team they believe will win Super Bowl LX, and why.<\/p>\n

Avert your eyes Patriots fans, oddsmakers believe it’s going to be Sam Darnold and the Seahawks’ year.<\/p>\n

Super Bowl LX picks from oddsmakers (Seattle 7, New England 0)<\/p>\n

Christian Cipollini, BetMGM NFL trader<\/p>\n

“I personally like the Seahawks to win in a very boring game. I think the Seahawks’ defense is real and will give Drake Maye trouble. I don’t think the Patriots will have many opportunities to scores. Game to come comes down to Darnold being able to limit turnovers, which I think he can do.”<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 23, Patriots 13<\/p>\n

John Murray, vice president of race and sports at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook <\/p>\n

“I think New England is better than people realize and they’re very well-coached, but to me Seattle is a little better than the Patriots are at every position.”<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 27, Patriots 17<\/p>\n

Ed Salmons, VP of risk at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook<\/p>\n

“Seahawks are simply better at every position.”<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 24, Patriots 17<\/p>\n

Jeff Sherman, VP of risk at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook<\/p>\n

“Patriots are a team on the rise with the second-year QB in Drake Maye, but it’s their time to wait Seattle dominates in all facets of the game to cruise to a convincing victory.”<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 27, Patriots 13<\/p>\n

Jamey Pileggi, Circa Sports head NFL oddsmaker<\/p>\n

“Seattle is a more complete team and will put pressure on Maye all game. Darnold is playing with confidence, if he protects the ball I think Seattle wins rather easily.”<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 20, Patriots 13<\/p>\n

Craig Mucklow, VP of trading at Caesars Sportsbook<\/p>\n

“I feel 4 is the correct spread and I am expecting a low-scoring defensive battle.”<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 17, Patriots 13<\/p>\n

Chris Andrews, South Point sportsbook director<\/p>\n

“If the Seahawks play up to their potential, they should win a close game.”<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 27, Patriots 20<\/p>\n

Joey Feazel, head NFL oddsmaker at Caesars<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m predicting Seattle 20-17 with a last-minute field goal to win it for Seattle. I am anticipating a back-and-forth defensive game that will align with the lack of elite quarterback play and solid defensive scheme on both sides of the ball.\u201d<\/p>\n

Score: Seahawks 20, Patriots 17<\/p>\n

Thomas Gable, Borgata sportsbook director<\/p>\n

\u201cI lean toward this game going under the total, and I\u2019m not sure the New England offensive line is able to hold up under pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n
