Kroger Field is near the bottom of stadium capacity of SEC stadiums

There’s no doubt about it — when 50,000-plus are screaming inside Kroger Field, it can turn a Saturday in Lexington into a nightmare for opposing offenses. The roar rattles quarterbacks, pushes offensive linemen into false starts, and sometimes even flips the scoreboard. It’s one of the most underrated home-field advantages in college football.

But in the arms race of stadium size, where does Kroger Field actually rank in the SEC? The answer: nearly the bottom according to 2024 numbers.

Smallest in the SEC—intimate but lacking the volume of bigger venues.

Ahead of Vanderbilt, yet still smaller than most—though loud when it counts.
