The Birmingham Stallions are expected to continue their winning ways when they host the Houston Roughnecks on Sunday, May 11, with kickoff slated for 12:00 pm at Protective Stadium.
Houston enters the matchup on the heels of a narrow 21-20 victory at home over the Memphis Showboats in Week 6. The Roughnecks kept their noses clean, avoiding turnovers throughout the contest, which proved crucial in preserving the slim lead. While their passing attack lacked explosiveness, Houston leaned on efficient, short-yardage throws and a defense that made timely stops to edge out Memphis.
On the other hand, Birmingham steamrolled through San Antonio in Week 6, cruising to a dominant 26-3 win. The Stallions were in control from the opening kickoff, putting up at least six points in every quarter. Their balanced offensive approach racked up 313 total yards, 229 through the air and 84 on the ground—averaging nearly five yards per snap. It was a thorough performance that underscored their status as one of the league’s most complete teams.

Houston Roughnecks team news
The Roughnecks will once again turn to Jalan McClendon under center. While the former NC State signal-caller has shown poise and accuracy, completing over 70% of his passes, his deep passing game has yet to materialize. In his three appearances, McClendon has thrown for 556 yards and a single touchdown while being picked off twice. He's leaned heavily on short routes, exemplified by last week's conservative game plan.
Houston's ground game has been spearheaded by Zaquandre White, who's rushed for 172 yards and two scores on the season. Wideout Justin Hall has been McClendon's most reliable target, collecting 32 catches for 237 yards and two touchdowns, averaging just under 40 yards per contest.
