The new version of the USFL will kick off its inaugural season on Saturday, the latest spring football league to make a run at being successful. The first game will be Saturday night in Birmingham, Alabama, between the Birmingham Stallions and the New Jersey Generals, and it will air on both Fox and NBC. That will be followed by three games on Sunday.
There are eight teams in the USFL, who will play a 10-game schedule during the regular season, with the top two teams in the North and South divisions advancing to the playoffs. The championship game will be a matchup of division winners. The original USFL lasted three seasons, from 1983 to 1985.
The Pittsburgh Maulers will face the Tampa Bay Bandits Sunday at 8pm. That game will be televised on FS1.
