The Kansas City Chiefs. The San Francisco 49ers. The matchup is set, we know the Super Bowl 54 odds<\/a><\/strong>, and, of course the prop bets<\/a><\/strong> are also set. While much will be made in the coming days about the Chiefs’ 50-year Super Bowl absence, Andy Reid’s 21-year wait, and the 49ers quest for a sixth Lombardi Trophy, my attention is occupied by far more important matters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Matters such as the Super Bowl coin toss. Is there a more electric four seconds in sports? I think not.<\/p>\n

Of course, some bettors enjoy the prolonged agony of watching their wagers unfold over four hours, but I, on the other hand, like my action quick. Gather around, gentlemen, flip the coin, and let’s cash a bet–all before the football takes its opening flight against the backdrop of thousands of flashing lights. Is there anything better than that?<\/span><\/p>\n

All right, perhaps I’m playing this up a bit, but I do enjoy the coin toss and always make it part of my Super Bowl prop bet picks. <\/span><\/p>\n

You may say this is next level degenerate stuff, and I would agree, but I’m so here for it, and you should be, too. Be the only person in the room who jumps around like a total psychopath when that coin lands. Be a leader.<\/span><\/p>\n

That is how to Super Bowl, and that is why<\/span> I recently spent hours–multiple hours–researching all of the major trends and information related to the outcome of a distinguished coin tosser standing at midfield and flipping a commemorative hunk of earth metal into the air. I did this all in an effort to <\/span>dominate this year’s Super Bowl coin toss.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s go.<\/p>\n

Super Bowl Coin Toss History<\/h2>\n

The coin toss is the ultimate 50\/50 proposition, so it came as little surprise when I learned that over 53 years the splits have been relatively even. <\/span>Tails has hit in 28 of 53 Super Bowls, <\/strong>a rate of nearly 52.8% percent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A deeper dive into the numbers shows both lengthy runs and some staggered outcomes over the years, but can any of that information be used to help make a bet on the Super Bowl 54 coin toss? Maybe. Or you can just roll with what you used to call during recess.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 49ers will play in their seventh Super Bowl and have won the toss in four of their six appearances. As it turns out, winning the toss has been a good omen for San Francisco as it is a perfect 4-0 when winning the coin toss<\/strong>. The 49ers are 1-1 when losing the flip.<\/p>\n

The Chiefs Super Bowl coin toss history isn’t quite as long or storied-they have lost the coin toss in each of their two Super Bowl appearances.<\/span><\/p>\n

One other note–San Francisco is undefeated in the Super Bowl when tails wins, going 3-0 in those contests. They are 2-1 when heads wins. Kansas City lost with heads and won with tails.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to select who wins the toss based purely on conference–an extremely bold strategy–then know that the NFC won it 14 straight seasons from 1998-2011<\/strong>, helping give the conference an all-time .679 Super Bowl coin toss winning percentage.<\/span><\/p>\n
