Nashville, TN

Home of the Vanderbilt Commodores, Vanderbilt Stadium is the smallest stadium in the SEC. In 1922, a stadium was constructed on the site and was known as Dudley Field. It was the first stadium built in the south just for college football. The Commodores played their first game at the stadium on October 14, 1922 against Michigan. The stadium originally had a capacity of 20,000 and was named after Dr. William Dudley, Dean of the Medical College and football activist.

 

The first addition to Vanderbilt Stadium occurred before the 1937 season when bleachers were placed in the open end of the horseshoe stadium. Expansion also occurred before the 1949 and 1960 season when additions occurred on the east and west sides of the stadium boosting the capacity to 34,000. Lights were added in 1954 and artificial turf was installed in 1970. The majority of Dudley Stadium was demolished in the early 1980’s as part of a $10.1 million construction project of a new stadium on the same site. A new stadium was constructed and today seats 41,000 fans. A one tier grandstand in a horseshoe shape encloses the field. Other than being the home of the Vanderbilt Commodores, the stadium was the home of the Tennessee Oilers (NFL) in 1998.
