About Eastern Kentucky Football

Eastern Kentucky football has been a staple of college football since the program was established in 1909, and it carries one of the strongest championship pedigrees in the FCS. The Colonels own two NCAA Division I-AA (FCS) national titles (1979 and 1982) and built a national reputation as an early-era FCS power. The program’s story is closely tied to legendary head coach Roy Kidd, a College Football Hall of Famer who led EKU to both national championships, along with standout figures such as Jimmy Smith and Danny Barrett.

EKU plays its home schedule at Roy Kidd Stadium (at Tom Samuels Field) on the Eastern Kentucky University campus in Richmond, Kentucky. Opened in 1969 and carrying an approximate capacity of 20,000, the stadium delivers an on-campus experience with a close, community-rooted atmosphere. With an artificial turf surface and a setting shaped by the legacy of Roy Kidd (the playing field bears his name), it’s a classic place to watch college football in the Bluegrass State.

Today, the Colonels compete in the United Athletic Conference after a long history in the Ohio Valley Conference, and rivalry games are still major ticket drivers. Matchups with in-state and longtime OVC-era rivals like Western Kentucky, Murray State, and Morehead State can bring added intensity and demand. If there’s a specific rivalry game you’re targeting, browsing Eastern Kentucky Colonels Football tickets early is the smartest move.
