No Super Bowl LXI coin toss odds can be posted until the two teams are known on January 31, 2027, and the toss itself is on Sunday, February 14, 2027, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Priced at -105 on each side, a coin toss asks you to be right 51.2% of the time to break even on a flip that lands either way half the time.
That gap is the whole story of this bet. The last Super Bowl toss went to New England, and New England lost the game 29-13.

Super Bowl LXI at a glance
- Date: Sunday, February 14, 2027
- Venue: SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, California
- Conference championships: Sunday, January 31, 2027
- Last toss: New England won it at Super Bowl LX and deferred; Seattle won the game
The date and the venue are from the NFL’s own 2026-27 calendar of important dates, which the league marks as subject to change. Most coin toss props name a team, so they need both teams, and the matchup is not set until January 31.
How Super Bowl LX’s toss settled
The official NFL gamebook for Super Bowl LX, played on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, records it in one line: New England won the coin toss and elected to defer. Seattle took the ball, and New England chose to defend the south goal.
| Coin toss prop | Super Bowl LX result |
|---|---|
| Team to win the toss | New England |
| Toss winner’s choice | Defer |
| Team to receive the opening kickoff | Seattle |
| Toss winner to win the game | No: Seattle won 29-13 |
| Overtime coin toss | None, the game ended in regulation |
The gamebook does not record whether the coin came up heads or tails, and published reports of the result disagree. New England’s opening kickoff went 65 yards into the end zone for a touchback, and Seattle’s first drive started at its own 35.
Deferring is why the toss winner did not get the ball first. New England took its choice in the second half instead, and Seattle opened the game on offense.
The coin toss props, and what -105 costs you
A book lists the coin toss the same way it lists any two-way bet, and it takes a margin on both sides. On a made-up but typical board where both are -105, here is what each prop asks of you:
| Prop | Sides | Break-even at -105 |
|---|---|---|
| Heads or tails | Heads / Tails | 51.2% |
| Team to win the toss | AFC team / NFC team | 51.2% |
| Toss called correctly | Yes / No | 51.2% |
| Toss winner wins the game | Yes / No | 51.2% |
For a minus price, break-even is the price divided by the price plus 100, so 105 divided by 205 is 51.2%. The two sides add up to 102.4%, and the 2.4 points over 100 is the book’s cut. A fair coin gives each side 50%, so at -105 every one of these props is a small, steady loss unless you can find one side at plus money.
Heads or tails, team to win the toss and call correctly are all the same coin, priced three ways. Toss winner to win the game is different: it is really a bet on the game, with the coin deciding which team you are backing. Once the matchup is set and the Super Bowl line is posted, that prop is worth checking against the moneyline.
