best numbers to have in a football pool ?

If you have crappy numbers (which, to me, is anything other than 3, 6, 7, or 0), you want the score to go high -- and the higher the better. For instance, 1 is a guaranteed loser unless the score gets over 10, and 11 is very unlikely, but 21 is more likely. 4 is almost guaranteed to be a loser under 10 -- even 5 has to have better odds under 10. But then 14 is more likely than 15, 35 is probably as likely as 24, 34, etc.

If I ever get the time, this would be something to look at mathematically. Kind of like odds in craps or rolling dice.
