2026 United Bowl: How To Watch, What To Know, Biggest Storylines

United Bowl 2026 kicks off at 3 p.m. ET: DC Defenders (defending champs) vs. Louisville Kings (chasing their first title).
Big subplot — Defenders QB Jason Bean, traded from Louisville early in the season, helped DC upset top-seeded Orlando and now faces his former team.
Louisville brings momentum (five straight wins) behind QB Chandler Rogers, RB Ian Wheeler and WR Isaiah Winstead — one more win lands them a franchise-first title.
