FSB Take
The schedule gives Nick Clements and the St. Thomas University women’s flag football team an early test against the Florida Gators before the Bobcats begin spring competition. It also places important South Florida dates on the calendar, including the Navy and White Scrimmage, the Feb. 27 home matchup against Thomas University (Ga.) and The Battle of Miami Gardens against Florida Memorial University.
The Feb. 15-17 road stretch includes four scheduled contests in three days, while conference play begins March 4 at Warner University. The Oct. 23 scrimmage in Gainesville is the first listed date on the 2026-27 schedule.
