I am also using CAS on Tomcat behind F5 BigIPs.  One thing that has caused an
infinite redirect loop issue for me is if the F5 is not setup to rewrite the
redirects issued by Tomcat.  Because Tomcat does not know the request is
HTTPS, it issues an HTTP redirect back to your service.  If you have the F5
setup to redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS, then it will cause the loop. 
You can fix this in the F5:

Have you tried using LiveHTTPHeaders or Fiddler to watch the redirects?

Also, clock drift between the client machines and servers is something to
look out for.
