Like with roulette, if one color comes up several times in a row, you tend to bet on the opposite color.
Case in point: The past four Super Bowls have all been under the projected points total. Will that trend be snapped?
Last year, a trend was broken where the winning team had covered the spread in 12 consecutive Super Bowls. Not so in 2022.
Three of the past five winners were the team favored going in.
