XFL Division playoff schedule is set

The D.C. Defenders and Houston Roughnecks will play host to the Seattle Sea Dragons and Arlington Renegades, respectively in the XFL playoffs

The XFL regular season is over after 10 weeks. Up next are a pair of playoff games.

The Houston Roughnecks, winners of the South at 7-3, will face the Arlington Renegades, who were 4-6 in the regular season.

That game will take place on Saturday, April 29 in Houston.

The winner will advance to the championship game, which will occur on  May 13. Yes, the XFL is having a week off before its title game like the NFL does before the Super Bowl.

The North Division playoff game should be the better of the two matchups.

The regular-season North champion D.C. Defenders will meet the Seattle Sea Dragons on April 30.

Those teams combined to win 16 of 20 games in the regular season.  Two of those losses came when the Defenders defeated Seattle in the regular season by a combined four points.
