Super Bowl LX (Patriots vs. Seahawks, Sunday February 8 at Levi’s Stadium) is just days away, and squares pools are heating up as one of the most popular party games. To help you out, we have Super Bowl LX Squares pool winners & payout examples for you. If you’re running or joining a pool, understanding how winners are picked and payouts work can make all the difference.
Building on our guide “How to Play Super Bowl Squares 2026”, this post dives into real-world payout examples using historical trends and hypothetical scores tailored to this rematch of Super Bowl XLIX (Patriots 28-24 win).
In a standard 100-square grid, numbers 0-9 are randomly assigned to rows (Patriots) and columns (Seahawks) after all squares are filled. Winners are based on the last digit of each team’s score at the end of each quarter (Q1, Q2, Q3) and the final score. No skill needed; it’s all luck!
What are Common Super Bowl XL Squares Payouts?
Here are some common Super Bowl LX Squares payouts. We use a $1,000 pot to make the math easy, but many people play for much smaller pots (or even prizes like candy).
Common payout structures split a $1,000 pot (e.g., $10 per square):
- 20% per quarter ($200 each for Q1-Q3), 40% final ($400).
- Or even 25% each ($250 per). We’ll use the 20/20/20/40 split here—adjust for your pool. Historical data from 59 Super Bowls shows digits like 0, 3, 7 hit most often (89.7% of Q1 scores end in these), with 0-0 the top Q1 combo (25.9% of games).
How Super Bowl Squares Winners Are Determined
- Match the last digit of the Patriots’ score (row) with Seahawks’ (column).
- Example: If Q1 ends Patriots 3, Seahawks 0, the square at row 3 (Patriots) / column 0 (Seahawks) wins.
- Ties or overtime? Use the score at that moment (OT counts in final).

Sample Super Bowl Squares Pool Winners & Payout Scenarios for Patriots vs. Seahawks
We’ve crafted three realistic scenarios based on historical Super Bowl trends (e.g., low-scoring Q1s, comeback Q4s) and the XLIX rematch vibe. Assume a $1,000 pot with 20/20/20/40 payouts.
Scenario 1: Defensive Battle (Low-Scoring, Like Many Early Quarters)
- Q1: Patriots 0, Seahawks 3 (Common Q1: 0-3 hits 10 times historically). Winner: Square 0-3. Payout: $200.
- Q2 (Halftime): Patriots 7, Seahawks 10 (7-0 combo frequent). Winner: 7-0. Payout: $200.
- Q3: Patriots 14, Seahawks 10 (4-0). Winner: 4-0. Payout: $200.
- Final: Patriots 17, Seahawks 13 (7-3; classic close finish). Winner: 7-3. Payout: $400.
- Total Payouts: Four winners share the pot. If you hold 7-3, jackpot!
Scenario 2: Rematch Echo (Inspired by XLIX: High-Scoring Late)
- Q1: Patriots 0, Seahawks 0 (Most common Q1 ever—15 times in 58 games). Winner: 0-0. Payout: $200.
- Q2: Patriots 14, Seahawks 14 (4-4; tied halftime like XLIX). Winner: 4-4. Payout: $200.
- Q3: Patriots 24, Seahawks 14 (4-4 again; momentum shift). Winner: 4-4 (repeat winner!). Payout: $200.
- Final: Patriots 28, Seahawks 24 (8-4; exact XLIX repeat). Winner: 8-4. Payout: $400.
- Total Payouts: Note how 4-4 could win twice—lucky square!
Scenario 3: Offensive Explosion (High Totals, Like Recent Bowls)
- Q1: Patriots 7, Seahawks 7 (7-7; rare but exciting tie). Winner: 7-7. Payout: $200.
- Q2: Patriots 17, Seahawks 13 (7-3). Winner: 7-3. Payout: $200.
- Q3: Patriots 24, Seahawks 20 (4-0). Winner: 4-0. Payout: $200.
- Final: Patriots 31, Seahawks 27 (1-7; OT potential). Winner: 1-7. Payout: $400.
- Total Payouts: Spread out winners; digits like 7 and 0 dominate.
| Scenario | Q1 Winner (Score) | Q2 Winner | Q3 Winner | Final Winner | Notes |
| 1: Defensive | 0-3 (0-3) | 7-0 (7-10) | 4-0 (14-10) | 7-3 (17-13) | Low totals; safe bets on 0/3/7. |
| 2: Rematch | 0-0 (0-0) | 4-4 (14-14) | 4-4 (24-14) | 8-4 (28-24) | Repeats possible; historical nod. |
| 3: Offensive | 7-7 (7-7) | 7-3 (17-13) | 4-0 (24-20) | 1-7 (31-27) | Higher scores; rarer digits like 1/8. |
These are hypotheticals. The actual game could vary (e.g., Seahawks favored at -4.5, O/U 45.5). For best numbers, history favors 0,3,7 early; 4,1 later.
