Roughnecks at SeaDragons
Winner: Houston Att: 9,956
TV: 592k
Another late game on a Thursday really? I wouldn't be caught out there at that hour.

Defenders at Battlehawks
Winner: DC Att: 41,273
TV: 515k
Not promoting this to ABC is a missed opportunity to make new friends. Now only the diehards will see it.

Guardians at Vipers
Winner: Vegas Att: 2,899
TV: 171k
A lot of people are gonna miss Air Bud's debut.

Renegades at Brahmas
Winner: Brahmas Att: 29,346
TV: 550k
The Brahmas I would think, could come out on top here because they usually go rah rah things are looking up for at least the first week of a new coach. And it's home. It's 50/50 otherwise.

I will say one advantage of having games at all different times on different days is it gives the XFL and ABC/ESPN an idea of where the best timeslots are when building the schedule for 2024 - I know the XFL will still kinda get the "left over" slots, but any information, even in a small sample size, could be helpful in maximizing the league's viewership.

St. Louis does not seem to be opening the 400 level this time around, and still has a decent amount of 300 level tickets to sell. They're playing at the same time as the new MLS team, which has taken the city by storm. I still think they'll hit 30k, but not a whole lot more
