UFL Week 6 started hot, as the St. Louis Battlehawks defeated the Louisville Kings, 16-3, on the road Thursday night to hand the Kings their second straight loss.
But there’s still plenty to come this week in the UFL with the Week 6 schedule spread across four days:
- Houston Gamblers @ Columbus Aviators (Friday, May 1 at 8 pm ET on FOX)
- Dallas Renegades @ DC Defenders (Saturday, May 2 at noon ET on ABC)
- Birmingham Stallions @ Orlando Storm (Sunday, May 3 at 4 pm ET on FOX)
For now, here are the results for Week 6:
Key players: Battlehawks quarterback Harrison Frost (22 of 40 for 242 passing yards, two touchdowns), WR Hahkeem Butler (three catches for 47 yards); Kings QB Chandler Rogers (15 of 32 for 199 passing yards, interception), WR Tarik Black (four catches for 72 yards)
Game summary: The first half started slowly, but in the end, the Kings looked more solid offensively. Kings quarterback Chandler Rogers finished the game 12-of-23 for 133 yards, and receiver Tarik Black finished with two receptions for 55 yards. The Battlehawks’ first half seemed chaotic, as Rogers went 8 for 20 and 122 yards. However, the team’s defense recorded two sacks in the first half. Frost also found receiver Gary Jennings Jr. for a four-yard touchdown to take a 9-3 lead into halftime.
Frost and the Battlehawks figured it out early in the second half. St. Louis scored a touchdown with five minutes left in the third quarter, thanks to Steven McBride’s 11-yard reception. The Kings struggled throughout the second half and went scoreless, while Rogers threw an interception in the final two minutes to solidify St. Louis’ victory.
Next: In Week 7, St. Louis will host the Columbus Aviators on Friday at 8 pm ET on FS1. The Kings will travel to Washington DC to take on the Defenders on Saturday at noon Pacific Time.
