I think the crowd in St Louis will be large, but not exactly record breaking looking at the current Ticketmaster chart. I think going forward, the league should include playoff tickets in season ticket packages. For teams that don't make the playoffs they could either roll their credit into the next season, or use it towards merchandise purchase 

Birmingham - Michigan: 9675, 976k. Michigan shocks the defending champs with a walk off field goal by the man, myth and legend Jake Bates.

St Louis - San Antonio: 34,750, 1.13M. We see the opposite of last weeks defensive showdown. Both teams come out firing on all cylinders, but St Louis puts it away late in the game.

There actually is overlap with PantStalls and Phillies/Mets from London, of course seeing the only thing baseball-related that belongs in England is the 80s pop group from London it's a giant meh.

From a stature standpoint it would have been nice if the league could have got in on that Super Saturday, cause a rather bleh MLB DH--even if the second game is Dodgers/Yankees--sandwiched around a three-minute horse race, and a hour and a half of yak before it, doesn't really move the meter. But there wasn't really anywhere to put it. I'll give FOX credit for actually having all the events they were pushing opposed to that lame version that ESPN was trying to push years ago (when it was really just for Mayweather/Pacquiao anyway).

Here goes:

UFL Week 11 (Conf Champ) - Predictions (w/l, viewers, attendance)

Saturday 3pm EST - Mich at Birm - ABC   ( Birm in nail biter, 920k, 10500)

Sunday 7pm EST - SA at StL - FOX  (StL in a high temp duel, 550k, 41000)



Comments: The winners could be any of these four but I'm going Birm and Stl, I can't bet this as Its that close.

Disappointed at endzone pricing on "right" side at BIRM - UFL needs to adjust to the local per cap income base.  Also if Birm wants to keep a team, please make me wrong and show up on Game Day.
The decision to keep a 7pm Sunday night game against the NBA Finals game 2 AND MLB LAD vs NYY on ESPN at 7pm is questionable at best and damaging at worst.  I hope they don't do WORSE than my low expectation.   If they get 700k, I'd call it a big win.  But I'll stick with my predictions above.  I hope I'm wrong (to the low side).

So what, it's called counterprogramming, ain't like they're going up against the Super Bowl. Or did you miss that they far exceeded 550K against the Final Four and Wrestlemania back in week 2? So I guess the NCAA should cancel June Jubilation then...............

If it wasn't for the fact that FOX has been lagging behind ABC I'd give them a shot at a mil.

I based prediction, and its just a prediction, on 2023/24 ratings against NBA playoffs and SNB.  Of course I want to see them do better.  Likely the best slot was Sunday at Noon-1pm start.

And as I said elsewhere that's not going to happen with NASCAR following, especially if they're going to have a trophy presentation afterwards--although if the Hawks win it I'd expect it to be a little subdued ("One to go")
