Two great defenses; two good, but not great, offenses.
I'm taking the D.

2. What does that mean "Over or under" and "47.5"? |

The Vegas betting line allows you to bet on whether the combined game score will be lower or higher that 47.5 points.

8. Ah, gotcha! What kind of odds are they giving for each? |
|
Or are they equal odds?
And how do they come up with the 47.5 points?

9. Yes, I believe they're equal odds |
|
Not sure how they come up with that number. The expert oddsmakers do it. Good question.

Is this about gambling on the total points scored at the Super Bowl?

Both teams play the run better than the pass. The Eagles lit up some good defenses this year and the Pats should put up more than 20 points. I think it will be closer than 7.5, so I think the Eagles will cover.

12. I predict a score of 31-10 and a lot of people taking the under will |
|
be exteremely happy until a late junk touchdown makes the final score 31-17 and the oddsmakers win again.

I think this will be a tenaciously fought game.
