The 2 best games in the UFL, in my opinion, both involved St. Louis. Their loss to Birmingham and the win against San Antonio at home. Just my opinion The Arlington/DC matchup at the end of the season was another great game

There is already a trademark owned by the XFL is in Austin Tx. Austin is a huge football market. Load it with former longhorns and it sells itself

[@210stockyard]

What's the team?

[@The_RyBar]

@@210stockyard I believe it was the stallions and another name I don't remember.

I like the idea of playing in smaller stadiums. 55,000 empty seats at every Memphis game (and 45,000 in Arlington) is a buzz kill.

Friday night is a high school football game night anyways in big cities in Texas

SLC is getting an NHL team I wouldn’t try to complete with that for a couple of years, they have more marketing money. I agree with you I don’t understand why they don’t do more games on Sunday and Monday. Football fans are used to professional football on those days and if you want to use more MLS stadiums the MLS plays most of their games on Wednesday and Saturday. Just stick with Sunday and Monday, Friday night is a nice bonus.

I knew about the Hockey team, I just figured the seasons wouldn't really interfere with each other. Not sure tho. I don't watch Hockey unless you count SHORESY.

Oklahoma City makes so much sense really. Oklahoma has already had a spring football league before in the 80's. Also it has shown as a small market, it will support a major league franchise. Oklahoma is waaaay more of a football state than a basketball state as well so I would think the support would be comparable at least. Then for a league that is pinching pennies everywhere they can and removing established teams that already have a great fan base because of the additional travel cost (Seattle).... well Okc is closer to the hub in Arlington than Houston is. 3hr drive or 45min flight ain't to bad then for people and equipment. We have OU's stadium to play in or we also just voted to build a new soccer stadium much like DC plays in. Then you bring Bob Stoops back home to coach the team and you've got a slam dunk or homerun or whatever.

i agree with the two teams returning next year in seattle and canton, and i agree they should stay out of nfl cities for the most part, for future expansion,so that cuts out nashville, it already has te nfl, nhl,, and mls with possably the nba and mlb,being added. put teams in cities that may actually want a team, there are enough mid,and smaller markets that would fit the ufl better.,than nfl market cities.

I loved the breakdown! If Ben Denucci would come back to the Brahmas I think they're a legitimate contender tbh, the Garbers injury was so unfortunate. Super agree on the fact that the UFL should stay in hungry citys without Pro teams for any expansion, take the true minor league approach.

[@bruceellenburg429]

From what I've seen Dormandy is the better QB

[@TTCNoFlexZone]

🤘🏽LetsGoBrahmas🐂

[@ryanr9299]

Just heard that in a video That they probably won't expand in 2025 just possibly relocate for Michigan and Houston is all

[@kpowers]

Moving to different stadiums but staying in Michigan and Houston

Well you don’t have to worry about the vipers,the xfl side didn’t pay to keep the name n rights this season. So officially the vipers are completely gone,there’s talk about the bandits coming back but in a new team,same with the wildcats. The guardians manly because of Dani and her love fro Orlando or something like that. And the sea dragons n generals i Soo badly want them back,now there’s another rumor that they may not expand till 2026,something about wanting fans to have stability with the current teams. Honestly I think that’s a bad idea n they need to expand now or face having another unstable season

[@ryanr9299]

Omaha NE got Anywhere from 15,000 to 24,000 fans in the old UFL.. No pro teams There.. Kind of seems like a no brainer to me
