LOS ANGELES – Super Bowl prop betting is part of what makes betting on the Super Bowl enjoyable throughout the entirety of the game. Some prop bets might come off as simple and others could be harder to gauge and involve a bit of research.

Some odds in particular that legal sports betting sites offer are cross-sport props between different sports and the Super Bowl. Some of the sports that have odds offered in comparison to the Super Bowl are PGA and UFC.

Joe Mixon Vs. Jon Rahm Phoenix Open

What Will Be Higher?

Jon Rahm Phoenix Open 1st Round Score -155
Joe Mixon Rushing Yards In SB LVI +125

Some might think that Jon Rahm’s odds are well worth the risk being that he is the number one ranked golfer in the world, however, Joe Mixon should not be counted out. Rahm’s first-round scores have stayed put at 66 in his last three outings.

66 is a number that Joe Mixon can easily attain if the Cincinnati Bengals play their cards right. Mixon has struggled since exploding for 165 yards in Week 12. Since then, he has only gone over 66 yards once which came in the AFC Championship where he went for 88 yards.

It is also worth noting that the Rams defensive focus could come on stopping Ja’Marr Chase rather than stopping Joe Mixon on the run being that Chase has gone for 100+ yards in two playoff games thus far.

With Rahm on a hot streak right now going for 66 in three straight first rounds and the defensive focus potentially shifting away from Mixon, the longer Super Bowl prop odds could be worth the risk.

Rams Penalties Vs. UFC 271 Round Total

What Will Be Higher?

Total Accepted Penalties By Rams -115
Total Rounds By Adesanya vs. Whittaker -115

This could be one of the closer cross-sport props to bet on being that stats and odds are evenly matched. Looking at the round total for the UFC 271 main event between Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker, it is favored to go all five rounds at -135 odds. As of recently, Adesanya has gone all five rounds in three of his last four fights while Whittaker has gone all five in two of his last three. However, the last time these two faced off, it ended in a second-round knockout in favor of Adesanya.

On the LA Rams side of the odds, they have been one of the better teams in the league in terms of not having penalties called on them. They are averaging 5.25 flags against them per game with just 4.4 accepted penalties, the second-lowest in the league. The Rams have also stayed under five penalties in two of their three playoffs games so far.
