UFL schedule for Week 7 games: Odds, times, how to stream and watch on TV
UFL fans could be treated to a potential league championship game preview on Saturday when the undefeated Birmingham Stallions host the St. Louis Battlehawks (5-1).
The Stallions have picked up where they left off in the USFL, winning that league's two titles in its reincarnated form. The Battlehawks have won five straight games after a stunning Week 1 defeat against the Michigan Panthers when kicker Jake Bates connected on a 64-yard game-winning field goal in the final seconds.
Saturday's other game is on the opposite side of the standings spectrum, as the winless Arlington Renegades host the Memphis Showboats (1-5). The Renegades have been a big disappointment after winning the XFL championship game last season.
On Sunday, the San Antonio Brahmas (4-2) will aim to keep pace with the division-leading Battlehawks when they host the Houston Roughnecks (1-5), another team that is on the struggle bus.
Here's what you need to know to catch the spring football action this weekend:

What is the UFL?
The UFL is a merger between two competing spring professional football leagues, the USFL and XFL.
The recreated USFL — with team names harkening back to its 1980s ancestor — opened play in April 2022 with all eight teams headquartered and playing home games in Birmingham, Alabama. For the 2023 season, the league expanded its home stadium footprint.
Dany Garcia and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson purchased the XFL out of bankruptcy for $15 million and rebooted the 2020 version of the league. The XFL was successfully able to complete its first season in 2023.
The new, merged league was announced on Dec. 31, 2023.
