Floyd Stadium, home of the
Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders is the oldest stadium in the Sun Belt
conference. In the early 1930’s a new stadium was constructed for the
football program at the university. The Blue Raiders debuted at their
new stadium in 1933. The stadium was originally known as Horace Jones
Field, after Horace Jones, a prominent member of the Middle Tennessee
athletic department. Although the stadium has a small capacity today,
it has been enlarged several times. Expansions occurred in both 1950
and 1968 increasing the seating capacity to 15,000. In November 1979,
the stadium was renamed after legendary coach Johnny Red Floyd. By the
mid 1990’s Floyd Stadium began showing its age. In 1997 and the
following year, the stadium was rebuilt. The Blue Raiders debuted at
the rebuilt Floyd Stadium on September 5, 1998 against Tennessee
State. Today, the stadium has a seating capacity of 31,000. It has an
upper deck on the north and east sides, and contains 28 luxury suites.
