...............for the UFL schedule I came up with one that should (in theory anyway) resemble the real thing
The schedule is made up of four XFL vs USFL blocks vice merely sprinkling them in, and they're all balanced (XFL hosts two, USFL hosts two). I figure if FOX is still going to play up the XFL/USFL bragging rights go all the way.
No dates or TV, just games
WEEK 1
Birmingham at Arlington
DC at Michigan
St. Louis at Memphis
Houston at San Antonio
WEEK 2
Arlington at San Antonio
St. Louis at DC
Birmingham at Memphis
Michigan at Houston
WEEK 3
DC at Arlington
San Antonio at St. Louis
Houston at Birmingham
Memphis at Michigan
WEEK 4
Arlington at Houston
Memphis at DC
Michigan at St. Louis
San Antonio at Birmingham
WEEK 5
Arlington at St. Louis
DC at San Antonio
Birmingham at Michigan
Houston at Memphis
WEEK 6
Michigan at Arlington
DC at Birmingham
St. Louis at Houston
Memphis at San Antonio
WEEK 7
Arlington at Memphis
Houston at DC
Birmingham at St. Louis
San Antonio at Michigan
WEEK 8
Arlington at DC
St. Louis at San Antonio
Birmingham at Houston
Michigan at Memphis
WEEK 9
San Antonio at Arlington
DC at St. Louis
Memphis at Birmingham
Houston at Michigan
WEEK 10
St. Louis at Arlington
San Antonio at DC
Michigan at Birmingham
Memphis at Houston
NOTES
DCU plays six Saturday night games during the season, so one of the Defenders games will have to be Sunday night (though they did play Seattle on a Sunday at 3:00 after a DCU match the previous night so it can be done).
Birmingham has a game after the Legion play the previous night, see above.
Nobody has their spring game schedule up yet (Houston, Memphis, and Birmingham would be affected, San Antonio wouldn't cause UTSA hasn't had theirs at the Alamodome as of late), but easy way around if there's conflict, play on Sunday. Just hope that you don't end up with something like the would-have-been SL finale in the AAF that was moved to Friday night before Utah's spring game--that would have been painful.
I gave Michigan a week 5 home game to tie in with the draft.
So odds of this actually being the schedule, 10%? Watch all the concerts, conventions, truck shows and all this other good stuff that pops up on these venue sites that mysteriously weren't there last week (and I'm just a guy posting ideas on a message board, not having to deal with this)
