College Football starts in less than a week! Meanwhile the Powerball lottery has ballooned to 700 Million this week. Being the football stats guy, I figured I would take a look at the last 20 years of PowerBall data to see which numbers show up the most and the least in the winning lottery tickets. White Ball numbers in the 50s and 60s have not been around as long as the others. Therefore, the 50s and 60s white balls had to be averaged based on the number of years in existence. Here they are:
