no.
Luck is where preparation meets opportunity.
I forget who said that.

Yes, I believe in luck in just about every aspect of life. Can you sometimes alter your luck- of course but it still exists.

I believe it was Seneca the Younger. He was one righteous dude.

"You make your own Luck"
Principle One: Maximise Chance Opportunities
Lucky people are skilled at creating, noticing and acting upon chance opportunities. They do this in various ways, including networking, adopting a relaxed attitude to life and by being open to new experiences.
Principle Two: Listening to Lucky Hunches
Lucky people make effective decisions by listening to their intuition and gut feelings. In addition, they take steps to actively boost their intuitive abilities by, for example, meditating and clearing their mind of other thoughts.
Principle Three: Expect Good Fortune
Lucky people are certain that the future is going to be full of good fortune. These expectations become self-fulfilling prophecies by helping lucky people persist in the face of failure, and shape their interactions with others in a positive way.
Principle Four: Turn Bad Luck to Good
Lucky people employ various psychological techniques to cope with, and often even thrive upon, the ill fortune that comes their way. For example, they spontaneously imagine how things could have been worse, do not dwell on the ill fortune, and take control of the situation.

No but I do believe in momentum and the X-factor in football. Luck is just the code word for being prepared and seizing the opportunity.

Do you believe in Auburns 2013 football team? A little stiff dew and Jameis was the only reality that team got.

To me lucky as a concept overall is just successes during low percentage situations.
So when you look at it like that then yes you can call certain teams "lucky" but it's just because they are better at succeeding in low percentage plays. And for some plays we may see it as a 10% chance of succeeding but in reality an individual player may actually increase those odds to maybe 25%. So for us we see it as lucky but that player is actually just better.
