Doak Campbell Stadium
Tallahassee, FL

Perhaps one of the most famous football stadiums in college football, Doak Campbell Stadium has been the home to many great Seminole teams. Prior to moving into Doak Campbell Stadium, the Florida State Seminoles played at Centennial Field. Florida State decided to build a new stadium for the football team in the late 1940s. Named after former Florida State President Doak S. Campbell, the Seminoles played their first game at the stadium on October 7, 1950 against Randolph Macon. The stadium originally had a seating capacity of 15,000 with seating on both sides of the gridiron.
