In the Super Bowl, place kickers are not used as much as they are in the regular season or even other playoff games. Teams want to score touchdowns. Out of 53 Super Bowls, there have only been 151 games with field goals of 45+ yards (28%). Fair odds on that bet are -260. And, that's based on 45 yards, not 47.5. In addition, has this changed recently? Maybe with the recent rule changes that favor offense, this percentage has gone up? Actually it's just the opposite. Over the past 15 Super Bowls, only three have seen a field goal made at 48+ yards. Since Super Bowl 41, 11 of 13 Super Bowls have had the longest field goal come in UNDER 48 yards. Take the UNDER on this prop.
