The United Football League (UFL) and the defending champion Birmingham Stallions are hosting the USFL Conference Championship Game at Protective Stadium on Sunday, June 8.

On Saturday, the Stallions and Michigan Panthers clinched berths to the USFL Conference Championship Game by posting the best conference records.

The Panthers, who presently hold the better record, are not able to host the conference championship game in June due to a previously scheduled stadium event at Ford Field in Detroit.

“When the 2025 UFL schedule was released earlier this year, we were aware of potential postseason conflicts with the venue in Detroit, Mich., but after careful consideration we determined that playing the game in Birmingham was the best option for the league.”

USL President & CEO Russ Brandon
