Columbus Aviators New To Spring Football
Columbus are one of three new teams that have entered the United Football League for the 2026 season.
The Aviators were introduced as one of the teams to replace the scrapped Michigan, Memphis and San Antonio franchises.
Their head coach for the inaugural season will be former NFL wide receiver and returned Ted Ginn Jr, with spring football veteran Jalan McClendon expected to start at quarterback.
Orlando Storm Making UFL Debut In 2026
Orlando are making their United Football League debut, having been added to the league during the offseason.
The Storm were brought in following the shutdown of Michigan, Memphis and San Antonio, and they will be the third different franchise to play spring football in Orlando this century.
The Florida city played host to the Rage and then the Guardians in two different versions of the league, while the short-lived AAF league featured the Apollos in 2019.
The Storm will now attempt to be the team that sticks, and they will have a familiar face leading the charge.
Anthony Becht established himself as one of the best head coaches in spring football during his stint with the St Louis Battlehawks, despite his failure to lead them to a championship.
Verdict
With no previous games to go by, this is a tough matchup to call.
However, Orlando do have a big experience edge at head coach and this offense looks to have plenty of talent, so we lean towards the Storm marking their debut with a win.
