Super Bowl LX Treated Seahawks Bettors Well — and the Books Didn’t Mind Either
Scott Morris | February 10, 2026
If you backed the Seahawks against the spread in Super Bowl LX, the game never really made you sweat.
Seattle’s 29–13 win over New England was one of those Super Bowls where the result felt settled well before the final whistle. The Seahawks covered the 4.5-point spread without much resistance, alternate spreads piled up, and the game stayed under the total. For spread bettors, it was about as comfortable as it gets on the biggest stage.
From the sportsbook side, it wasn’t a bad outcome either, especially considering how many different ways people found to bet the game.
Seattle Backers Were on the Right Side Early
Seattle was the popular spread side across the market, and that support paid off. BetMGM reported that 57% of the spread handle landed on the Seahawks, and Caesars saw a similar number without the line moving much after it opened.
Seattle never trailed, controlled the tempo, and kept New England chasing points all night. Even with the Seahawks settling for five field goals instead of finishing drives with touchdowns, the margin never shrank enough to bring the spread into question.
At Caesars, one bettor walked away with a $200,000 spread win, which summed up how clean the result was for those who trusted Seattle. While spread bettors had it good, the moneyline told a slightly different story. A large chunk of moneyline tickets came in on the Patriots, helping sportsbooks balance the books even as Seattle handled business.
Why the Game Played Out Just Fine for the Books
The under ended up being just as important as the spread.
With only four total touchdowns scored, sportsbooks benefited from a game that stayed controlled and methodical rather than explosive. Seattle’s defense kept New England in check for most of the night, and long, field-goal-heavy drives drained the clock without lighting up the scoreboard.
For books like BetMGM and Caesars, that combination, Seattle covering, the under hitting, and limited scoring, created a solid overall result, even with plenty of winning tickets on the Seahawks.
Props Were Where the Action Was
As always, the real chaos came in the prop markets.
Seattle running back Kenneth Walker III took home Super Bowl MVP honors after rushing for 135 yards, rewarding bettors who grabbed him at plus money. Interestingly, Walker didn’t score a touchdown, which helped sportsbooks since his anytime touchdown prop was one of the most popular bets on the board.
Kicker Jason Myers briefly caused some nerves after setting a Super Bowl record for field goals, sending his MVP odds crashing and forcing books to sweat that market deep into the game.
Several popular player props came through for bettors. Drake Maye’s rushing over hit. Walker cleared his receiving yardage prop. Cooper Kupp went over his receptions total. On the other side, unders on Stefon Diggs’ catches, Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s receiving yards, and Rhamondre Stevenson’s rushing attempts all cashed.
Seattle’s defense scoring a touchdown also delivered for bettors holding that longshot, while simultaneously helping the Seahawks cover with ease.
Novelty Bets Stole Some of the Spotlight
No Super Bowl betting recap is complete without the weird stuff.
The coin toss drew massive interest, with one Caesars bettor cashing a payout of over $245,000 when it landed on heads. The yellow/lime Gatorade bath came through. The National Anthem time went under. Even the halftime show markets got plenty of action, with bettors dialing in on the first song.
Add it all up, and Super Bowl LX delivered exactly what bettors expect every February: a clear spread result, a mountain of prop outcomes, and just enough randomness to keep the conversation going long after the last beer was poured.
