About Memorial Stadium

Memorial Stadium opened in 1923 on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus and seats more than 85,000 fans for Cornhuskers football. Home games here have sold out every time since 1962, an NCAA record. Look for the inscriptions at the four corners, written by philosophy professor Hartley Burr Alexander. Outside you can see the Bob Devaney and Tom Osborne statues and the Hall of Fame Plaza, and free guided tours of the field are booked online ahead.
