12 Iconic College Stadiums That Are Older Than the NFL

10. Washington & Lee’s Wilson Field (1900)

One of the lesser-known but equally historic stadiums, Wilson Field at Washington and Lee University in Virginia was built in 1900 and has served as a cornerstone for college football in the South. Though it may not have the capacity of larger stadiums, it played a critical role in the sport’s early days, when smaller programs helped shape the college football landscape. With over 120 years of continuous use, Wilson Field is one of the oldest football venues still in operation, a rare relic of an era when college football was still defining itself. The stadium has seen legendary matchups and continues to be an integral part of Washington and Lee’s athletic culture.
