USFL Week 5 Preview: Breakers and Generals Battle for No. 2

USFL - Week 5 in the USFL sees the return of inter-divisional games. The next three weeks will see all remaining North-South matchups played before the league closes out their schedule with three more weeks of divisional faceoffs. That means over the next month, we'll see what has become fairly obvious to this point: the power in the USFL is in the South.

In Week 1, South teams went 4-0 over their Northern counterparts, outscoring them by a combined 85-56 margin, and that was with the two best teams in the North (the Generals and the healthy Stars) matched up against the two best teams in the South (the Stallions and Breakers).
