In case of the coin toss odds, visiting team New Orleans Saints would be calling the coin, odds are resting on four options - will the coin land on heads or tails, who will win the coin toss, who will receive the kickoff and first team to kickoff. The odds of both teams are placed equally as of now.
Believers in coin toss odds say there is a science to these bets. Those calling the coin flip have won 12 coin tosses in Super Bowl history - coming up with the New Orleans Saints winning the coin toss and receiving the opening kickoff.

And, the loser of the coin toss in those 13 games has gone on to win the Super Bowl. So, would that translate into an Indianapolis Colts Super Bowl victory?
