If you love all of the intriguing props odds that surround the NFL’s annual Super Bowl showcase and you’re looking to cash in on the fun-filled National Anthem props odds that are now a staple of every Super Bowl affair, then you’re going to love the five, fun-filled predictions that you’re about to get on the legendary Gladys Knight and her impending national anthem performance right before Super Bowl LIII kickoff.

Since haste makes waste, let’s get started.

Super Bowl LIII Odds for Gladys Knight Performance of the National Anthem

How long will it take Gladys Knight to sing the U.S. National Anthem?

  • Over 1:45: -140
  • Under 1:45: Even

Last year, Philly’s own Pink snapped a three-year Super Bowl streak of the national anthem topping the two-minute mark. Pink’s version of the national anthem lasted 1:53 and was the shortest performance since Kelly Clarkson performed it in 1:34 at Super Bowl 46. Dating back too Super Bowl 40, the longest national anthem was sung by Alicia Keys at 2:35. Other notable singers to top the two-minute mark are Jennifer Hudson (2:10), Aretha Franklin and Aaron Neville (2:09).

“I am proud to use my voice to unite and represent our country in my hometown of Atlanta,” the seven-time Grammy Award-winning singer said in a recent statement.

Keep it simple NFL bettors. Gladys Knights can hold a not like you wouldn’t believe and I expect her to easily to the O/U total here.

Super Bowl LIII Odds Pick: Over 1:45

Will Gladys Knight be wearing a skirt, dress or gown to sing the U.S. National Anthem?

  • Yes -175
  • No +135

There’s no school like the old school and Gladys Knight is definitely ‘Old-school’ NFL bettors. I’m feeling like a skirt/dress is a virtual lock here!

Super Bowl LIII Odds Pick: Yes

Will Gladys Knight forget or omit a word from the National Anthem?

  • Yes +300
  • No -500

There is absolutely no way that Gladys Knights omits or flubs the national anthem. She’s the ultimate professional and she’s performing in her hometown. Drop the $500 it will take to cash in here!

Super Bowl LIII Odds Pick: No

Will any player take a knee during the National Anthem?

  • Yes +400
  • No -700

While no player took a knee at Super Bowl 51 or 52, here’s hoping that it happens in Super Bowl 53. In November of last year, the NFL made a proposal that would donate nearly $100 million to causes considered important to African-American communities.

Will any player take a knee during the National Anthem?

This act, plus what has happened to Colin Kaepernick, means that in all likelihood, no player will kneel during the national anthem so as to not put the spotlight on himself and potentially endanger their status as an NFL player. Go with the ‘No’ pick here.

Super Bowl LIII Odds Pick: No

Will any scoring drive takes less time than it takes Gladys Knight to sing the National Anthem?

  • Yes -110
  • No -130

Yes. Either the Rams or Patriots will have a short drive that is shorter than Gladys Knight’s national anthem performance, most likely, resulting in a field goal. I like the ‘yes’ pick here and you should too. Or maybe you forgot that Tom Brady is the master of the two-minute drive.

Super Bowl LIII Odds Pick: Yes
