Super Bowl Gatorade color prop picks

Three of the last four Super Bowl-winning coaches have received a blue Gatorade bath. According to a 2022 article by Sports Drinks USA, the top two flavors of Gatorade are Glacier Freeze (light blue) and Cool Blue. Glacier Freeze also tops the charts in ranking for Mashed.com and sits on top of the list for The Takeout.

Blue is the best value pick here given its popularity over the last several years and the fact that it is at least 100 to 200 points longer than the other favorites.

Kansas City head coach Andy Reid was bathed in orange Gator ade as time expired in Super Bowl 54. He joined four other coaches over the last 12 years to celebrate a Lombardi Trophy under an orange rain.

There is very little deviation across most books with +300 as the most common number. Oddsmakers are also leaning on Kansas City's underdog status offering longer odds to their last Super Bowl-winning Gatorade color.

In 2016, Doug Peterson led the Philadelphia Eagles to a Super Bowl title. He was greeted by his players with a cooler of yellow Gatorade in celebration. It was the first time in nine seasons that lemon-lime was the flavor of choice for the Super Bowl-winning team. Overall, the combo is one of the least popular big game sideline flavors with just three appearances since Brian Billick was doused after winning Super Bowl 36 in 2001.

The Eagles are slightly favored by the Super Bowl odds and oddsmakers are leaning into the n arrative that the Gatorade company will fill their coolers with a lemon-lime refreshment. BetMGM is buying it even more, offering +100 for Nick Sirianni or Reid to be covered with yellow/green Gatorade at the end of the big game.

For context, let's compare these early odds for Super Bowl 57 with those from DraftKings, FanDuel, and BetMGM for last year's Super Bowl 56 between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals:

Those who put their faith in blue last year were rewarded when Rams head coach Sean McVay was hit by the No. 4 favorite on DraftKings (and the No. 2 option at both FanDuel and BetMGM).

Super Bowl Gatorade color history

Part of what makes the Super Bowl Gatorade color prop so intriguing is that, historically, there hasn't been a real front-runner.

Here's a breakdown of the color of the winning coach's Gatorade shower over the years:

Aside from several years where Bill Belichick was a bit of a Gatorade curmudgeon, we've seen winning coach showers in the overwhelming majority of Super Bowls since the tradition first began. Here's a look at the number of winning Super Bowl Gatorade baths by color:

• Orange: 5
• Clear: 4
• Blue: 4
• None: 4
• Yellow: 3
• Purple: 2

As you can see, there is no real rhyme or reason – though we'll share a few ways that you can potentially improve your odds of betting on the correct Super Bowl Gatorade color.

Super Bowl Gatorade color betting tips

There's only so much you can do to improve your chances here, but there are some things to consider if you want to give yourself even a sliver of an edge:

• Consider following beat writers from b oth the Eagles and Chiefs in the days leading up to the Super Bowl. They might either address the Gatorade topic with their own knowledge of the subject (based on their proximity of the team), or it might come up in one of their interviews.
• Make note of any color match potential that exists with the Super Bowl finalists. Could the Eagles opt for lime green? Might the Chiefs roll with red? Both are possible!
• If you're still in doubt, go with blue! Not only has it been the winning color three out of four years, but it also happens to be the best-selling Gatorade flavor overall.
