At halftime, this is shaping up to be a good game.
Definitely good game - was listen 1st half in car, catching rest on HD
GO PEREZ & AR!

8,545 in attendance per Mike Mitchell.
Looks like like a stetch ( tix sales vs live attendance ) - but take it. Need to work on AR the most next season. Its where the teams practice and its UFL's biggest market, s/b getting 14-15k. 1-7 isn't helping. Is the Arlington branding and practice discount deal still in effect for 2025?
Assuming so I'd expect a solid push in D-FW market, its a key one.

I think 2025 is the last year in the Arlington deal. Plus I'm not sure if that deal would cover any expansion teams

The difference between McCarron and Wilkins reminds me of Jeff Brohm and Brian Kuklick in 2001. Just enough of a step down, just enough of a difference to knock the team down a notch.
Wilkins is a lot more reckless with the ball. Surprised we haven't seen more of Silvers, who is a lot less raw.

I don't think these announcers know what a "walk-off" means.

Well it also took them literally the whole game to realize that the B-Hawks aren't out of HFA contention with a loss. Reason Xth FOX is superior.

We’re going to lose to the Brahmas in consecutive weeks.

That's really assuming a lot of a team that has an inconsistent offense as SA against AJ at some point. That and SA had three really bleh road performances (two were complete gimmies from 7 and 8), now we're going to lock them in against one of the two 4-0 home teams?
Could be that STL just has the always dangerous home/away split going, but if they keep the Dome field strong against SA that doesn't even apply. Sure, Hawks have some injuries, but not like it's near enough against a team who's really only had one impressive half on offense in four road games.
