USFL 2022 Schedule

USFL TV Schedule Details Released For FOX & NBC Networks

The USFL is quickly ramping up as we approach season two. Details regarding the USFL TV schedule have been released, as FOX and NBC networks prepare to broadcast 43 games from April through July.

USFL TV Schedule Breakdown:

– FOX to broadcast 18 games
– NBC to broadcast 11 games
– FS1 (cable) to broadcast 7 games
– USA Network (cable) to broadcast 7 games
– All NBC and USA Network broadcasts will be available on Peacock
– Thirteen matchups will be scheduled to have primetime kickoffs on Fox, NBC or FS1

Without a doubt, this is excellent news for the USFL as a whole. 29 out of 43 matchups will be on national TV, which is six more than last season.

Focus On Lead-In Programming

On top of that, FOX made a concerted effort to give the league better lead-in programming, as it heads into its second season. FOX Sports EVP/Head of Programming & Scheduling Bill Wanger says that this should “help our exposure in year two”.

The USFL is playing in four markets this year, giving FOX Sports more flexibility when it comes to scheduling games for television. Now, you can go from one game in a venue straight to another game in a separate venue, rather than everything going down in one location.

FOX and NBC emphasized scheduling USFL games after popular programming. This means that games will be aired after Nascar Cup Races, MLB games, and other important events.
