Super Bowl National Anthem Previous Times & Trends

Heading into Super Bowl 59, the over has cashed in 4 straight Super Bowls and in 5 of the last 6. Country singer Reby McEntire sang the national anthem last year and it clocked in at a prompt 1:35. The anthem does typically come in at around 2 minutes, and a lot of what can determine whether the national anthem goes over or under is how long the singer holds the note at the end. Despite the recent dominance of the Over, it is only 6-4 in the past 10 years, so there could be some positive regression coming the Under’s way.

The opening line of the Super Bowl National Anthem has been set at 120.5 seconds, or 2:00.5. As mentioned previously, we typically see the anthem clock in at around 2 minutes and that rings true for this line, where the past 8 Super Bowls have seen 4 go under and 4 go over the number. The line will inevitably be different depending on which sportsbook you use, so it’s essential that you shop around to make sure you find the best number relating to your over/under bet and increase your chances of winning.

Super Bowl National Anthem Picks and Predictions: Under 120.5 seconds (+114)

We correctly predicted the Over to cash on the National Anthem last year but this time we’re rolling with the Under. Not only is it because some regression is expected to be coming after 4 straight Overs, but there is historical evidence of Jon Batiste being a quick performer. Batiste performed the national anthem at the 2017 NBA All-Star Game, and that came in at a prompt 90 seconds (1:30). While things could be quicker this time, it is a bit of a stretch to expect him to take 30 seconds longer 8 years later, or to make it last 33% longer if breaking it down that way. Batiste is also only 38 years old, so should still have the lung capacity to nail the anthem at speed without pausing for too many breaths. Let’s start the Super Bowl with a winner and roll with the Under.
