Northeast Conference Football Stadiums

We showcase the football stadiums of the Northeast Conference, one of the many NCAA FCS conferences. Thanks for watching!

[@akbullworm]

Stonehill just reminded me, it would be cool if after all the FCS stadiums you dabble into D-2 and D-3 football. There are a lot of small yet charming stadiums across the nation

[@MickeyJWind]

virtually all of the nec teams were d2 not too long ago.

[@jamespyle777]

Francis Field hosted the 1904 Olympics

[@yoFACTOR]

UCO (University of Central Oklahoma) is absolutely beautiful and features a waterfall in the endzone!!

[@sawyerbaltimore3015]

Bazemore Hyder...home of Valdosta State 🔥🔥

[@adamwurster2876]

Another good area of exploration is NAIA. I went to a college that has a football team, but is not part of NCAA at any level.

[@alexandermitchell9070]

Pittsburgher here. You nailed the Duquesne Dukes pronunciation, unlike a lot of out-of-towners

[@cooperdatrooper87]

He nailed it perfectly

[@scottym3233]

any ncaa fan who knows their shit should have been able to pronounced it imo. Then again I'm 44 and have been a cfb,cbb fan since I was bout 7 so I guess it just came naturally for me lol.

Merrimack, Stonehill, and LIU are all relatively new to D1 football. LIU used to have separate athletics programs for its Brooklyn and CW Post campuses. LIU Brooklyn competed in D1 sports but didn't have football. CW Post had D2 football. The school merged the athletic programs into a single D1 program, the LIU sharks, in 2019.

With a terrible color scheme

[@matthewconnors1011]

Arute Field is named for Jack Arute Sr., whose son Jack Arute Jr. is a former motorsports and football reporter for ABC Sports.

[@jaxsonroadhouse3262]

Also the Arute family owns Stafford Motor Speedway... Nice racetrack for auto racing...

[@Mars-hv3tz]

I love all the work that’s you put into these, mad respect

[@yoFACTOR]

DEFINITELY touch on CFB D2 stadiums.. There are some of the BEST stadiums in the country with the most unique architecture throughout the country. LOVE it when you make videos about CFB!!!

[@TonysMusic1974]

Thanks for finally covering this conference. Hameline Field at Wagner looks 1,000 times better than when I went there in the 90's. Also, thankfully Bryant has left the conference. Good Riddance 🙂

[@redsoxchatbcharboneau9587]

The Rio Grande quip at the end was hilarious!!!

[@danielvassallo4686]

Very interesting to see that some conferences have big stadiums like 90 to 100k, while some have less than 6k. Keep up the good work!

[@scottym3233]

sad thing is some have big stadiums but can't fill them due to lack of interest, or being priced out for the average working family.

[@brittanywestmoreland6539]

I love FCS ball. As a graduate of Gardner-Webb University, the atmosphere is amazing.

[@rylandspencer]

Da Field Goal... You never disappoint

[@alexandermitchell9070]

When are we gonna get a video with all the PSAC football stadiums?

[@reecedallison5764]

Honest look forward to every video. Going to sound random but the tune you have playing throughout my favourite one you select for your videos. Matches them perfectly.

[@TheCyborgXD]

Small stadiums always seem to have the best views

[@jarodelliot2784]

As a Duquesne alumni, there is a path we call A-walk (Academic walk) that is right next to the field. So after you're done with classes you'll often see the football team kut there practicing or even a soccer game going on. One interesting part is the student section is on the away teams side and you are literally only a foot or 2 away from the entire team

[@BizarreWords]

Amazing video as usual! Also, I have good news! Earlier this month you made a video on Mexico City's stadiums and you mentioned PLaza de Toros: All bullfighting events have been suspended, as a federal judge has forbidden Bull Fighting in the city!

[@the_tig3r88]

Merrimack is 15 minutes from me. It's a hockey school for sure since it had D1 hockey before all the other sports. Still cool to see D1 football now in the little stadium.

[@rileyolson2824]

I played in the WIAC conference for football, would love for you to check it out eventually! It’s a college American football conference in the Midwest! Keep it up my man

[@scottym3233]

just went to La Crosse wi a few weeks ago, seen their stadium it was pretty nice, and a few days later was in Mankato mn and saw theirs as well.

[@jathbr4113]

I’ve been wondering, if you didn’t know there’s a lot of conference realignment drama happening in college sports right now. So maybe it would be interesting to look at the stadiums of every school looking to join a new conference in the next five or so years? Most of the stadiums would have been ones you covered in the past, but I think a couple of them would be new. Great video as always!

[@rileyolson2824]

Another day another awesome video mate

[@dennisud]

I like the fact that you're reviewing all the conferences Stadiums, KEWL!

[@hirambright9357]

Rio Grande...that was hilarious 😂

[@albertmiller2electricbooga897]

Loving the vids man

[@danielflynn8530]

I live 15 minutes away from Central Connecticut and it’s an okay place to watch a game. The famous Iwo Jima statue with the marines proping an American flag is located down the street from that stadium

[@Dubshs13]

I love these Vids! Hope to see the WAC (Western Athletic Conference) soon. I think it is the only Division 1 FCS Football conference missing.

[@clairethewave]

Same here! I’d like to see what he would think about Lamar University’s stadium. Ours is next to a refinery. Kinda weird and honestly I never understood why someone thought it was a good idea to build a university next to a refinery, or vice versa. Either way, sometimes I still smell chemicals from the plant while I’m on campus.

[@Dubshs13]

@@clairethewave I completely understand about the refineries in that area, as I am from Port Arthur, but other than that Lamar has a really nice stadium...I wish Sam Houston gets something nice like that when we transition to FBS.

[@dijohn17]

He still hasn't done the MEAC

[@Ant992009]

As a CCSU Alum I was Glad to see this video. Also Bryant is leaving the NEC for a different confrence.

[@topstadiumfootball9990]

Nice video!

[@aaronloehr4161]

You should do D2 after you finish FCS. There are really some nice stadiums that are even better than some of the FCS. MIAA conference might have the best group of well rounded great stadiums

[@G.luke65]

Could u possibly do all stadiums in the Lowland Football League( Scotlands 5th tier league system)

[@nabimenj641]

thanks for all the recent vids man... how about best stadium in every african country ?

[@johnbowe4603]

Can you do Canadian college football stadiums

[@mlang28]

Do you have D3 staduim like ODAC conference and more

[@spang9782]

Wanna see a D-1 program with a stadium much like the ones shown here? University of Hawaii went from 50,000 seat Aloha Stadium to 9000 seat Ching Field. It is a temporary fix as Aloha Stadium is rusted out and deemed unsafe, but in Hawaii, "temporary" can mean 5 or more years.

[@pdg61met]

Thumbs up!

[@06BIBOI]

Bryant is not in the NEC anymore !

[@will0497]

Could you do cricket grounds

[@croppd]

Time to do DIII college footballl stadiums

[@kamelkadri2843]

you gonna have to redo all of the college football series now the wave of realignment hit again with the recent USC & UCLA move to B1G

[@GamingHistorySource]

good lord ! My old High School football stadium is bigger than most of these stadiums. D.W. Daniel High. Central S.C.

[@Seadragon77]

Not bad... just to let you know, Bryant actually left the NEC as of today to join America East (Big South for football).

[@TonysMusic1974]

Yup. As a Wagner alum, I was not sad at all to see them go!

[@Seadragon77]

@@TonysMusic1974: Oh, I understand the reference. For everyone on here - He is mainly focused on the NEC Men's Championship Game last season, where Bryant defeated Wagner to earn their first ever Men's Tournament bid. But, the game was marred thanks to Wagner fans losing their minds and starting a fight with the Bryant student section. All of the Wagner fans were told to leave the arena and Bryant would celebrate the win after those tense moments.

[@TonysMusic1974]

@@Seadragon77 my good friend Dustin here has a case of selective memory and neglects to mention the Nasty and verbally abusive bryant students who harassed wagner players from the moment they got off their bus as well as their childish "star" player who was run out of two other colleges because he is obnoxious and childish before bryant took him in. No NBA team would put him on their summer league roster, but Wagner's best player is currently on one 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Seadragon77]

Oh, right, right... I did forget to mention that the best player on Bryant was basically acting a fool the whole time as Bryant put the hammer down on Wagner in that game.

[@TonysMusic1974]

@@Seadragon77 yet he's not playing anywhere right now, but Morales is . . . . Hmmmm 🤔

[@brianfoley1805]

Bryant isn't in the NEC anymore...they are in the Big South now

[@talk-is-pitt]

you pronounced it right for duquesne.

[@shemhenrichsen32]

Still need the MEAC

[@Logan-th6tf]

please do Canadian university football, I've been asking forever

[@tylersaddler9100]

Do the meac conference!!

[@MattWeasel]

@The Wide World of Stadiums... Can we get you to do a best of Texas high school football stadiums video? Your mind will be blown at how large and expensive some of these are. $50+ million dollars for several. Check it out. Thx!

[@TheWideWorldofStadiums]

The Stadiums of Dallas-Fort Worth video is coming up soon. That includes heaps of high school stadiums.

Can you do LSC? D2 NCAA

Should do paac

[@BannanaMan-nz4ff]

WAC Conference!

[@tdyerwestfield]

My local non-league football team has a stadium twice the capacity of the largest stadium in this video.

[@bizmen81]

I guess you'll have to update the B1G video as USC/UCLA are joining...yes, you read that correctly.

[@greglyons2734]

I was shock when UCLA and UCLA was leaving pac 12 conf and go to the big 10 conf

[@Statinthehat]

I don't care how much money the DeGol family gives, I still call it the Pine Bowl. Go Red Flash!

[@ItsWoag]

Btw for CCSU's stadium it's Uh-roo-tay, AND there are two cemeteries over there next to each other not just the one!

[@bastih.5264]

Of course everyone knows that this is not the Rio Grande, silly. That's the Mississippi.

[@TheWideWorldofStadiums]

That would've been my second guess.

[@simaaj22]

Cemetery is not pronounced like symmetry…….😂

[@vatech_editz]

IM FIRST PIN ME

[@danielflynn8530]

The reason why many stadiums in the Northeast are so small is because American Football is not popular here.

[@gregsells8549]

Basketball also ranks higher in the Northeast, but the NEC plays in small gyms and holds its post-season tournament in those gyms rather than a neutral arena.

[@zacharyrome3432]

The NEC is probably the lowest level FCS league , just a notch above Division 2 !
