UFL championship odds 2025: Birmingham Stallions favored to four-peat
Skip Holtz and the Birmingham Stallions have already established themselves as a spring-league dynasty, so it's no surprise they are expected to be top contenders for the UFL championship in 2025.
The Stallions are returning a solid chunk of the players that helped them shut out the San Antonio Brahmas in the 2024 UFL championship game. That includes long-time running back CJ Marable and defensive star Kyahva Tezino.
Birmingham is also getting back 2023 USFL MVP Alex McGough after he spent parts of the 2023 and 2024 seasons with the Green Bay Packers. He is battling with Matt Corral, who started in tandem with Adrian Martinez last season, for the team's starting quarterback job.
It's easy to see why oddsmakers are bullish on the Stallions given their history of success and the continuity they have retained in the ever-changing spring league.
But who will be Birmingham's top challengers in 2025? Here's a look at the odds to win the 2025 UFL championship.
