There are just two weeks remaining in the 2025 UFL regular season, but fans already know which teams will be competing in the postseason. The Arlington Renegades and Houston Roughnecks were officially eliminated from playoff contention with losses last week. That allowed the DC Defenders and St. Louis Battlehawks to clinch the XFL conference's two playoff berths while the Michigan Panthers and Birmingham Stallions will represent the USFL. That said, the No. 1 seed in each conference remains up for grabs. The pecking order in the XFL may not be established until Week 10, but the Panthers have an opportunity to wrap up the USFL's top seed as they look to gain every possible advantage on the three-time spring-league champion Stallions. Here's what to know about the UFL's Week 9 schedule and how to watch all four matchups. The UFL will, as always, feature four matchups in Week 9. For the second consecutive week, the league's doubleheader will be played on Saturday, though the games will not be contested simultaneously as they were last week. There will be one game on both Friday and Sunday to bookend the weekend. Below is a complete look at the spring football league's Week 9 schedule. (All times Eastern.) St. Louis Battlehawks at San Antonio Brahmas, 8 p.m., Fox Arlington Renegades at Memphis Showboats, Noon, ABC Michigan Panthers at Birmingham Stallions, 3 p.m., ABC DC Defenders at Houston Roughnecks, 4 p.m., Fox UFL SCHEDULE 2025:Dates, times, TV channel, more for every spring football game Start time: 8 p.m. ET TV channel: Fox Live stream:Fubo The Battlehawks are coming off one of their biggest wins of the season. They beat the Stallions 29-28 in a potential UFL championship game preview after a Callahan O'Reilly pick-six and a Jacob Saylors touchdown allowed St. Louis to outscore Birmingham 16-7 in the final quarter. Now, St. Louis will look to beat the league-worst Brahmas and get a leg-up on the Defenders in the race for the XFL conference's No. 1 seed. San Antonio has averaged 23 points per game over its last two outings, both one-score losses, so the Brahmas won't necessarily be a pushover. Start time: Noon ET TV channel: ABC Live stream:Fubo,ESPN+ The Renegades were eliminated from playoff contention in Week 8 after a 33-30 loss to the Defenders. It marked Arlington's fourth straight loss, all of which have come by six points or less, and continued their two-year trend of struggling to win close games. Like Arlington, Memphis is out of contention. However, the Showboats are coming off a win during which their defense forced Kevin Hogan into three interceptions and didn't allow a passing touchdown. If their defense continues to perform well, they could potentially challenge the Renegades, especially if quarterback Luis Perez cedes reps to Holton Ahlers with the team out of contention. DARYL JOHNSTON:UFL coaching departures not about lack of confidence in league Start time: 3 p.m. ET TV channel: ABC Live stream:Fubo,ESPN+ This matchup will serve as a USFL championship game preview and may ultimately decide which team gets the No. 1 seed in the conference. The Panthers would clinch it with a win while the Stallions would be in the driver's seat if they win. Both Michigan and Birmingham are dealing with injuries at quarterback. The Panthers relied on Danny Etling to lead them to a 30-18 win over the Roughnecks in Week 8 with potential UFL MVP Bryce Perkins nursing an ankle injury. Etling performed well, completing 14 of 22 passes for 167 yards and three touchdowns. Meanwhile, the Stallions have relied on J'Mar Smith to lead them amid injuries to Alex McGough and Matt Corral. Smith came out of retirement to rejoin Skip Holtz's squad and has performed well. He completed 14 of 27 passes for 262 yards, three touchdowns and an interception against the Battlehawks last week. If both quarterbacks play well again, this game figures to be more of an offensive showdown than their early-season meeting. Birmingham beat Michigan on the road 21-12 in a Week 2 defensive battle. Start time: 4 p.m. ET TV channel: Fox Live stream:Fubo,ESPN+ The Defenders may need to win this game to keep pace with the Battlehawks in the race for the XFL's No. 1 seed. Of course, the two divisional rivals are facing off in Week 10, so that will likely end up deciding who gets home-field advantage in the XFL conference championship game. Meanwhile, Houston was eliminated from playoff contention via its 30-18 loss to Michigan last week. The Roughnecks are just playing for pride at this point, but quarterback Jalan McClendon continues to provide their once-stagnant offense a spark. The battle between him and DC quarterback Jordan Ta'amu should be fun for UFL fans to watch. This article originally appeared on USA TODAY:UFL schedule Week 9: What games are on today?
