We're less than a week away from Super Bowl LX between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots, the most unlikely Super Bowl matchups we've ever seen from a preseason odds perspective.
The Seahawks are currently 4.5-point favorites at most sportsbooks (with a few 5s out there) and a total of 45.5 at BetMGM.
There are many large wagers out there, including a $2 million bet from Mattress Mack on the Patriots at +200 (to win $4 million) and a $50,000 wager on the Seahawks to win Super Bowl 60 at 60-1 odds from a BetMGM bettor from August that would win $3 million. We're keeping track of all of them in this file.
But it is the Super Bowl after all, which means the people want picks. And who better to give that than the oddsmakers booking all the action themselves.
Yahoo Sports reached out to a dozen oddsmakers from Las Vegas and around the country and asked which team they believe will win Super Bowl LX, and why.
Avert your eyes Patriots fans, oddsmakers believe it's going to be Sam Darnold and the Seahawks' year.
Super Bowl LX picks from oddsmakers (Seattle 9, New England 1)
Christian Cipollini, BetMGM NFL trader
"I personally like the Seahawks to win in a very boring game. I think the Seahawks' defense is real and will give Drake Maye trouble. I don't think the Patriots will have many opportunities to scores. Game to come comes down to Darnold being able to limit turnovers, which I think he can do."
Score: Seahawks 23, Patriots 13
John Murray, vice president of race and sports at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook
"I think New England is better than people realize and they're very well-coached, but to me Seattle is a little better than the Patriots are at every position."
Score: Seahawks 27, Patriots 17
Ed Salmons, VP of risk at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook
"Seahawks are simply better at every position."
Score: Seahawks 24, Patriots 17
Jeff Sherman, VP of risk at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook
"Patriots are a team on the rise with the second-year QB in Drake Maye, but it's their time to wait Seattle dominates in all facets of the game to cruise to a convincing victory."
Score: Seahawks 27, Patriots 13

Jamey Pileggi, Circa Sports head NFL oddsmaker
"Seattle is a more complete team and will put pressure on Maye all game. Darnold is playing with confidence, if he protects the ball I think Seattle wins rather easily."
Score: Seahawks 20, Patriots 13
Craig Mucklow, VP of trading at Caesars Sportsbook
"I feel 4 is the correct spread and I am expecting a low-scoring defensive battle."
Score: Seahawks 17, Patriots 13
Chris Andrews, South Point sportsbook director
"If the Seahawks play up to their potential, they should win a close game."
Score: Seahawks 27, Patriots 20
Joey Feazel, head NFL oddsmaker at Caesars
“I’m predicting Seattle 20-17 with a last-minute field goal to win it for Seattle. I am anticipating a back-and-forth defensive game that will align with the lack of elite quarterback play and solid defensive scheme on both sides of the ball.”
Score: Seahawks 20, Patriots 17
Thomas Gable, Borgata sportsbook director
“I lean toward this game going under the total, and I’m not sure the New England offensive line is able to hold up under pressure.”
Score: Seahawks 21, Patriots 17
Chuck Esposito, Station Casinos sportsbook director
"I think both teams get off to a slow start in this game. This clearly could be a game where the kicker decides it. I have the Pats winning on a last-second field goal. New England defense is also a top-10 unit and is extremely underrated."
Score: Patriots 23, Seahawks 21
