The USFL is back this weekend with eight teams from the original league, which existed in the 1980s.
The USFL is the third spring league in recent years but is trying to become the first to complete a season since the original XFL in 2001.
The league will play a 10-week regular season with all games taking place in Birmingham, Alabama. There will be a 4-team playoff, to be held in Canton, Ohio.
Unlike the original USFL, which poached star players from the NFL with big contracts, the most recognizable names might be the head coaches.
