The defending champions D.C. Defenders show no signs of slowing down with four games left in the 2026 UFL season, and they'll be looking to roll again in Week 7. The Defenders are 5-1 and have outscored their opponents by 91 points. They host the Louisville Kings (2-4) on Saturday at 1:30 p.m. ET. Week 7 UFL action kicks off Friday with the Columbus Aviators (2-4) visiting the St. Louis Battlehawks (4-2) at 8 p.m. ET, and the Birmingham Stallions (2-4) host the Dallas Renegades (3-3) on Saturday at 8 p.m. ET. The action wraps up with the Orlando Storm (4-2) at Houston Gamblers (2-4) at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday.

Columbus +4.5 vs. St. Louis

Battlehawks quarterback Luis Perez looks set to get his first start of the season against the Aviators this week. What troubles me is the concern about whether he can evade the pressure from the Columbus defense. Because the Aviators offense has found its rhythm in the past two weeks, this game will be much closer than the spread suggests, giving Columbus a chance to win outright. I'm also leaning toward Under 43.5 points for this one.
