The first match-up with Georgia will also serve as Tampa Bay's home opener.

The "War on I-4" continues with the Orlando Predators on February 19 at the St. Pete Times Forum and April 22 at Orlando. The Storm hold the lead in the all-time series winning 19 of 37 contests. The Storm have also won the last 5 of 6 from the Predators.
