Well it's the Superbowl tonight, and bodog have kindly given me a £25 risk free bet on this extravaganza. Only thing is, I know next to nothing about the NFL. Anyone on here betting on it tonight and if so what are your selections?

Much obliged.

£20 on Giants.

£10 on Giants (+3).

Giants to win by less than 7 points.

[Shuggie_Murray7]

I've gone for £2 on Mario Manningham first TD at 12/1 and £5 on 31-40 points in the game at 6/1.

[GingerSaint]

Just put £2 on Victor Cruz anytime TD @10/11

£2 on Hakeem Nicks anytime TD @11/10

£1 on Aaron Hernandez anytime TD @ 6/5


I'm fucked if the Giants don't win.

Eli Manning that is why. The guy has the best record of game winning drives in the last 2 minutes in the NFL

The Giants have really came into form at the right time this year a bit like the Packers did last year.

The Giants have the better team IMO. On offense, they have an excellent receiving core that is top 3 in the league. The Pats defence was the lowest ranked in the regular season - although they have improved and are not as bad as that stat would suggest - and the Giants will get a lot of big plays out of their secondary.

On Defense, the Giants defensive line will get at Brady and he is very uncomfortable when under pressure. The Pats offense will not be as effective with Gronkowski's injury (he will probably play but won't be 100%) and I think Brady will throw an INT or maybe even two, which puts it back in the hands of Eli-te Manning.

All in all, it will be a close game and it will come down to whoever has the ball in their hands last, there will be a last minute drive from either Brady or Manning. I think if the Giants play to their potential and don't make any mistakes they will win it.

Cheers guys. I've taken the Giants at 2.25 so here's hoping we're all winners.

£15 up for the night, plus I won a pint off one of my customers at the pub.

I had a ton on the G Men and a wee bit on the first touchdown markets, thankfully with PP.

Bradshaw accidently scoring that TD at the end cost Paddy Power £120,000 in refunded bets cause of their money back special
