Hearing the Panthers open the 2008-09 season in Tampa on Friday, Oct. 10.
Florida will open its home campaign the following night, Oct. 11, against a "mystery" team. I've heard Boston, also Atlanta and Carolina. So who knows.
Don't know if this is 100 percent true or not, but throwing it out there for kicks.
If Florida does open on Oct. 11, it may compete with the University of Miami's home game against UCF at Joe Robbie Stadium. A kickoff time for that game has not been announced. Of course if it's a noon kick, you can do both.
The schedule will be announced next month. Also hearing there will only be one preseason game at The Bank this, well, preseason. That probably means eight exhibition games on the road. Good times.
who knows? Maybe i'll go up to tampa on the 10th

I don't care if it conflicts with a UM game. There are some people down here who like hockey more than football...not many but there a few. Thanks,
