Could Hampton University's hopes of a fourth Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference title in five seasons hinge on a win against Florida A&M and former Pirates coach Joe Taylor? That's possible by the looks of Hampton's 2008 schedule, released Thursday.

The Pirates close their regular season Nov. 15 against FAMU in Tallahassee.

"Not looking over all of the other games, but the last game against Florida A&M is going to be a very good game,"Coach Jerry Holmes said. "I know that when the team looks at the schedule, the first thing they are going to look for is to see when we play Florida A&M because they want to square off against Coach Taylor and some of the other former coaches."
