Can Birmingham LOCK IN Once Again? UFL Semifinals Preview

2025 UFL playoff bracket

It's no secret that I've been fretting over the Stallions vulnerability this season. After seeing them dominate spring football for 3 years, every loss is like the sky is falling. They finished the regular season at 7-3 which is the most losses they had in a season since their 2022 revival. Personally, I want them to win a 4th straight title just to make the people who want them to relocate stew. They got their revenge against Memphis so at least they enter the playoffs on a high note.


THE GAMES


2025 USFL conference championship Michigan Panthers vs Birmingham Stallions
Michigan Panthers       21
Birmingham Stallions  24

Birmingham beat Michigan twice before this season and they should win again. Both matches were 1 score games so that worries me a bit. What gives me hope is that the Panthers is on a 2 game skid losing to the Ponies and Houston. Granted, Houston was a late bloomer this season so they might not be as mid as their record says they are. Either way, In J'Mar Smith We Trust.


2025 XFL Conference championship DC Defenders vs St. Louis Battlehawks
DC Defenders                10
St. Louis Battlehawks   17

St. Louis closed out the regular season with a 13-8 win over DC last week. It avenged their week 3 loss to them. The game was low scoring due to both teams starting their backups and the field had puddles because I guess soccer fields don't use drainage systems. Anyways, I will go with a Battlehawks victory. The UFL already missed out on the Battlehawks playing in front of their home fans in last season's championship game, I doubt they will allow it to happen again.


LAST WEEK:   3-1
OVERALL:     26-14
