About Eastern Kentucky Football

Eastern Kentucky football is one of the defining programs of FCS history. Established in 1909, the Eastern Kentucky Colonels have captured two NCAA Division I-AA national championships (1979, 1982) and reached four consecutive Division I-AA national title games in the early 1980s. That era is inseparable from legendary head coach Roy Kidd (1964–2002), a College Football Hall of Fame member whose impact still shapes the program. EKU’s legacy also includes standout Colonels who went on to NFL success, including Danny Copeland, Aaron Jones, Larry Brown, and Jimmy Smith.

On Saturdays in Richmond, the Colonels play at Roy Kidd Stadium (at Tom Samuels Field) on EKU’s campus. Opened in 1969 with an approximate capacity of 20,000, the stadium is named in honor of Coach Kidd and features an artificial turf playing surface. The atmosphere fits what college football does best: an on-campus crowd, energized by students and alumni, with the EKU marching band and spirit squads helping set the tone.

EKU currently competes in the United Athletic Conference (UAC) after a long history in the Ohio Valley Conference, where the Colonels won 21 OVC football titles—one of the most prolific totals in league history. Rivalry matchups that can drive demand include Western Kentucky, Morehead State, Murray State, and Jacksonville State. If there’s a specific rivalry game you’re targeting, browsing Eastern Kentucky Colonels tickets early is the smartest move.

Getting Ready for Eastern Kentucky Colonels Game Day

Once your tickets are confirmed, a little preparation goes a long way — especially on an on-campus football Saturday where parking and entry lines can build as kickoff gets closer.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Mobile service near Roy Kidd Stadium (at Tom Samuels Field) gets congested on game days. Save them to your phone's wallet or screenshot them as a backup.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is the standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having.
  • Arrive early. Gates typically open roughly 60–90 minutes before kickoff. Give yourself extra time for entry and security, especially on high-demand nights.
  • Parking: On-campus and nearby lots serve the stadium on game days.
  • Check the bag policy before you go so there are no surprises at the entrance.
