"Expect to see the Generals turn to a run-heavy attack out of the gate. After quarterback Ben Holmes was hurt and replaced by Luis Perez, it is likely that running back Mike Weber, a standout for Ohio State from 2016 to 2018, will be a major presence in the offense. He finished his collegiate career with 2,676 rushing yards on 455 carries with 24 touchdowns before being drafted by the Cowboys in 2019.

The Stallions, on the other hand, are likely to be coming out of the gate airing it out. They're led by quarterback Alex McGough, who threw for 65 touchdowns and 9,091 yards in four years at Florida International, and wide receiver Victor Bolden Jr., who spent two seasons in the NFL with the 49ers and Bills after recording 1,863 receiving yards and 727 rushing yards in four years with Oregon State."

All but 1 of these team names and logos are pretty bad not gonna lie though. Tampa Bay Bandits are the only good creation. Just my opinion.

But that's beside the point. Looking forward for see these dudes polish their skills for a hopeful NFL career down the line.

So the USFL was allowed to rip off the name of an NHL team?

It's the Alabama Football League. I'm guessing it fails in three weeks

I thought this was just a joke, but it really is a New Jersey Devil hockey name. Oh wow that’s bad.

@DJ made a typo. They’re the Generals.
