Birmingham Stallions Win the USFL Championship

USFL - And they would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for Scooby and those meddling Stallions.

The USFL Championship Game had a little bit of everything—big plays, backup quarterbacks, back-breaking turnovers, unique rules, truly head-scratching decisions and a finish that wasn't decided until the final minute in regulation. But in the end, it was the Birmingham Stallions—the team with the longest odds before the season began—who end up holding up the inaugural championship trophy. The Philadelphia Stars made it a game and covered the spread. Had it not been for Case Cookus' gruesome injury in the fourth quarter, we might be talking about Bart Andrus' men being victorious today.
