While we're waiting............................

Post by MGB01 »

...............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)

Take it FWIW, but apparently someone on X/Twitter found an events page for parking in St. Louis that had the Battlehawk home dates listed for weeks 2, 3, 6, 8 and 10.

BTW small oversight, Alamodome has Disney on Ice and Luke Combs the first two weekends in May, so the latter would need to be flipped and made a Sunday (or Monday) night game

Doesn't matter, the chances of this being the actual schedule (or something like it) are approaching the Lloyd Christmas variety.
