Eccles Coliseum

Historic Eccles Coliseum is home to Thunderbird Football, as well as SUU Track and Field and Cross Country. Eccles Coliseum's visual backdrop ranks among the most beautiful in the country, with the surrounding mountains providing a striking setting for college football. The stadium follows the Grecian architectural scheme of the Harris Center located at the south end of the Coliseum. Since its renovation the Coliseum has undergone a series of upgrades, with the most recent the installation of Hellas MatrixTurf in the summer of 2012. The Coliseum also boasts a comfortable, first-class press box as well as a state-of-the-art video board. In addition to the football amenities, the Coliseum also boasts a newly rebuilt and resurfaced track and field facility which was completed in 2009. 

With seating for 8,500 and maximum capacity of just over 10,000, Eccles Coliseum provides a distinct homefield advantage on gamedays. The Coliseum provides an environment in which fans enjoy SUU football in comfort, surrounded by spectacular scenery as the stadium provides chair-backed seats as well as luxury suites on the press box level. Located on campus, SUU students flock to fill the stands and help provide a unique collegiate atmosphere.
