San Antonio sports fans, mark your calendars—the San Antonio Brahmas have unleashed their game plan for the 2024 season, which kicks off on March 31. The United Football League newcomers will host the DC Defenders at Alamodome to launch their first full season under the league's new configuration. As KENS 5 reports, the team is aiming to bounce back from a less-than-stellar 3-7 record.
The Brahma's schedule is packed, with weekly games either at home in the Alamodome or away at rival grounds. The regular season wraps up on June 1, taking the team from Texas to St. Louis, where they'll clash with the Battlehawks at The Dome at America’s Center. Season ticket holders can secure their spots now, while the general public will have access to single tickets starting on February 22, as noted by KSAT.
Looking beyond the regular season smash, conference championships will take place on June 8 and 9, with the real showdown—the UFL championship game—slated for June 16. It's undeniable: San Antonio is ready to rumble and football aficionados are itching for a piece of the action.
The UFL landscape is a merger of giants with this being the first season after the XFL and USFL combined forces. Each team will face off in six in-conference games along with four out-of-conference challenges, gunning for a shot at the championship glory. These heart-pumping moments will be broadcast on heavy-hitters like ABC, FOX, and ESPN, ensuring fans won't miss a beat. "There’s a passionate football fan base in San Antonio and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back to The Alamodome for a new era of Brahmas football," Wade Phillips, the seasoned coach at the helm, told KSAT.
Cheering from the sidelines, fans will witness Phillips, the former Dallas Cowboys head coach, orchestrating plays in hopes of achieving the same success he garnered with last year's XFL's Houston Roughnecks—a commendable 7-3 record that carried them to the South Division Championship game.
