Here are the best Super Bowl Squares Numbers 2026 for you. With Super Bowl LX (New England Patriots vs. Seattle Seahawks) kicking off Sunday, February 8 at 6:30 p.m. ET, squares pools are in full swing for watch parties and office bets. This no-skill game relies purely on luck and the last digit of each team’s score at the end of each quarter (Q1, Q2, Q3) and final. But history shows some digits hit way more often than others due to common NFL scoring: touchdowns + PAT (7), field goals (3), safeties (2, rare), and multiples.
Across 59 Super Bowls (236 quarters, 472 individual scores), certain “hot” digits dominate. The magic numbers are 0, 7, 3, 4 (accounting for ~70-72% of all ending digits historically). Avoid 2, 5, 8, 9 (under 14% combined). For this Patriots-Seahawks matchup (Seahawks favored -4.5, O/U 45.5), expect similar trends. Defensive battles favor low early scores (lots of 0s), while comebacks boost 7s and 4s later.
Best Super Bowl Squares Numbers – Top Historical Hot Digits & Combinations
Based on Super Bowl squares data and broader NFL trends (including recent years), here are the best Super Bowl Squares Numbers 2026 for you. Keep in mind, many of the squares games you come across out there won’t let you necessarily pick a square with the numbers pre-assigned, but knowing is half the battle.
- Most Frequent Single Digits Overall:
- 0: ~27% (especially Q1; games start 0-0, many low-scoring quarters)
- 7: ~18-19% (touchdowns + extra point)
- 3: ~16% (field goals)
- 4: ~10-12% (common in later quarters from 7-3 differences)
- Top Combinations (Highest Probability Across Quarters/Final):
- 0-7 or 7-0: ~3.3% overall (tops lists; strong in Q1-Q3)
- 4-7 or 7-4: ~2.8%
- 0-3 or 3-0: ~2.7%
- 0-4 or 4-0: ~2.4%
- 0-0: ~2.2% (huge in Q1, rarer later)
- 3-7 or 7-3: ~2.0%
Worst to avoid: 2-2 (0.09%), 5-5 (0.13%), 8-8 (~0.17%), or anything with 5/9 heavy.
Quarter-specific trends:
- Q1: Heavy on 0-0 (most common ever), 0-3, 0-7 (low-scoring starts).
- Q2 (Halftime): 0-7, 0-3, 3-7 rise.
- Q3: 4-7, 7-0 gain value.
- Final: 7-0/0-7, 0-3/3-0, 4-7 still lead.
For Patriots-Seahawks (rematch of XLIX: 28-24, ending 8-4), expect Seahawks (favored) to push 7/4/0 digits; Patriots could see 3/0 early if defense holds.
