Which is better -- XFL or USFL ??

[Hooked on Huskers]

I know Dollar Store versions. Never watched it both XFL or USFL (TV coverage). I noticed today, Vegas Vipers at Arlington Renegades game, February 18 2:00CST, ABC coverage. Maybe I will watched it ....... maybe

Renegades, Bob Stoops head coach.

USFL schedule, weird venues. Only 4 stadiums, Canton, Memphis, Birmingham and Ford Field (Detroit).

USFL NJ Generals, Mike Riley head coach.

Anyway I can't wait ...... 194 days 6 hours 30 minutes (Huskers @ Rodents). See Which-Is-Better link .... totally agree

First half, I watched it . Like NFL, predicable and mostly boring .

Positive thing, slightly less commercials.

Any former Huskers on any of these rosters?

That is what I’d like to know.

Looked up Vipers and Renegades rosters ..... nope, no Huskers. A couple of XFL players, never heard of this schools

I looked through all the XFL rosters and found 3 Huskers.

Chris Jones - Seattle
Freedom - St Louis
Damian Daniels - St Louis

USFL opening season, April 15 (tax day ). FOX coverage.

I like USFL rules. Very similar CFB rules ..... O.T., pass interference, one foot in bounds, etc.

And no longer ancient chain crew. Now precise spot .... microchip inside ball

MR .... nice guy finish last first !!

If Mike friggin' Riley is the coach of the year that tells you all you need to know about that league.

The original USFL in the 80s was better than any non-NFL professional football league since.

I thought last years USFL did what it was suppose to do. Gave some players a chance to show what they could do, and a few ended up signing with NFL teams.

From what I watched over the weekend the XFL didn't seem quite a good as last years USFL, at least as far as quality of play was concerned. But then it was the first weekend. They did have a couple interesting twists. They encourage punt returns, so if you punt out of bounds you are penalized, not sure about that one.

I did like their kickoff. The teams line up 5 yards apart, and no one moves until the returned touches the ball.
