Super Bowl 58 2-point conversion odds and history
“Yes” to a 2-point conversion attempt by either team at any point in the game is +125; “No” is -165. A successful 2-point conversion in the Super Bowl would pay out at +280.
There have been 11 successful 2-point tries in Super Bowl history. Three have come in the last 7 games, including 2 in Super Bowl 51 between the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons. Last year, Philadelphia Eagles’ quarterback Jalen Hurts punched one in against the Chiefs. Despite making frequent appearances on this stage, neither Kansas City nor San Francisco has ever delivered a 2-point conversion during the biggest game in football.

Super Bowl 58 2-pt conversion prediction: Any player to have an octopus (+1400)
In case you aren’t familiar with an octopus, that’s when the same player scores both a touchdown and the ensuing 2-point conversion on the same possession. Since the 2-point conversion was adopted in 1994, there have been more than 8,200 games played. There have been 188 octopi – all in different games. That means they happen about 2.3 percent of the time.
As such, +1400 odds don’t seem like enough, but it would be fun to say you cashed a successful octopus bet in the Super Bowl! And, guess what… for the first time in Super Bowl history, it happened last year! Hurts followed up a touchdown run by running in the 2-point conversion. For what it’s worth, “No” to an octopus being scored is -4000.
