Built for the Southern Methodist University Mustangs, Gerald Ford Stadium is the newest stadiums in college football. In the mid 1990s, talk of building a new football stadium began. By 1997 talk became a reality when construction began on a new football facility. The stadium was built on the same site as its predecessor, Ownby Stadium. Funding for the stadium came from many individuals including from Dallas billionaire Gerald Ford, who the stadium was named for.

The Mustangs made their debut at the stadium on September 2, 2000 against Kansas. The stadium has a seating capacity of 32,000 in one tier horseshow configuration. The playing field is 25 feet below street level to allow easier access to the seats and so  the stadium is not so imposing on its surroundings. Gerald Ford Stadium has several amenities including 600 club seats and 24 luxury suites. In the future the stadium may be expanded as it was built to be able to be expandable to seat 45,000 fans.
