Powerball Xs & Os Hot and Cold Teams
7 drawings so far, from September 13, 2026 to October 25, 2026. Eight of the 32 teams come up each week, so a team should be drawn about once every 4 weeks, or 1.75 times by now. The Detroit Lions and Miami Dolphins lead with 4 each. 4 teams have not been drawn at all; pure chance would leave about 4.3 undrawn after 7 draws, so nothing here is out of the ordinary.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Powerball Xs & Os teams have been drawn the most?
Through October 25, 2026, the Detroit Lions and Miami Dolphins have each been drawn 4 times in 7 drawings. Every other team that has come up has been drawn 3 times or fewer.
Which teams have not been drawn yet?
4 of the 32: the Buffalo Bills, Indianapolis Colts, Los Angeles Rams, and New York Jets. With 8 teams drawn a week, any one team misses a given draw 75% of the time, so going 7 draws without coming up happens to about 13% of teams by chance alone.
Does picking hot or cold teams improve my odds?
No. Each Sunday the lottery draws 8 of the 32 logos at random, and every team has the same 1 in 4 chance of being one of them no matter what happened the week before. Hot and cold lists describe the past, not the next draw.
Do NFL game results affect which teams are drawn?
No. The drawing is random and has nothing to do with which teams won or lost on the field that week.
