Week 6 of the UFL started off hot as St. Louis Battlehawks took down 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 over four days:
- Houston Gamblers @ Columbus Aviators (Friday, May 1 at 8:00 PM ET on FOX)
- Dallas Renegades @ DC Defenders (Saturday, May 2 at noon ET on ABC)
- Birmingham Stallions @ Orlando Storm (Sunday, May 3 at 4pm ET on FOX)
So far, here are the results from week 6:
Key players: Battlehawks QB Harrison Frost (22-for-40 for 242 passing yards, two touchdowns), WR Hahkeem Butler (three receptions for 47 yards); Kings QB Chandler Rogers (15-for-32 for 199 passing yards, interception), WR Tarik Black (four receptions for 72 yards)
Game Summary: The first half started slowly, but in the end the Kings looked healthier offensively. Kings quarterback Chandler Rogers finished the game 12-for-23 for 133 yards and wide receiver Tarik Black finished with two receptions for 55 yards. The Battlehawks’ first half looked chaotic as Rogers threw 8-for-20 for 122 yards. However, the team’s defense recorded two sacks in the first half. Frost also found wide receiver Gary Jennings Jr. for a four-yard touchdown to take a 9-3 halftime lead.
Frost and the Battlehawks found out at the start of the second half. St. Louis scored a touchdown with five minutes left in the third quarter, thanks to Steven McBride’s 11-yard catch. The Kings battled through the second half and went scoreless, while Rogers threw an interception in the final two minutes to seal the win for St. Louis.
