The 2008 Malone Pioneers football team (variously "Malone" or "Malone University", formerly "Malone College") represents Malone University in the season of 2008. The Pioneers play their home games in Fawcett Stadium.
The schedule was originally to begin with three non-conference games. The September 6 game against Apprentice in Virginia was cancelled due to severe weather conditions. The remaining three non-conference games were against Union College in Kentucky and Olivet Nazarene University in Illinois, followed by St. Xavier later in the season. The season ended with a trip to the 2008 Victory Bowl in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Malone lost in a close game to Northwestern (MN).

Of a silent crowd walking under a wall,
Leaving a football match, perhaps, or a pit,
All moving the same way.”

“I also heard the whooping of the ice in the pond, my great bed-fellow in that part of Concord, as if it were restless in its bed and would fain turn over, were troubled with flatulency and bad dreams; or I was waked by the cracking of the ground by the frost, as if some one had driven a team against my door, and in the morning would find a crack in the earth a quarter of a mile long and a third of an inch wide.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
