Founded in 1905 in Charleston, South Carolina, The Citadel Bulldogs have carved a proud place in college football. A Tangerine Bowl title in 1960 and Southern Conference crowns in 1961, 1992, 2015 and 2016 headline the trophy case, alongside multiple FCS playoff runs. The program is no stranger to headlines, from the 1992 upset at Arkansas to the 2015 win over South Carolina.

Game days at Johnson Hagood Stadium feel uniquely Lowcountry and distinctly military college. The Corps of Cadets march to the stadium, the Regimental Band and Pipes set the cadence, tailgates ring the neighborhood, and the cadet section stands and surges all afternoon. The annual Military Classic of the South against VMI for the Silver Shako anchors the calendar, and alumni and families fill the stands. Whether you are a lifelong Bulldog or visiting Charleston, expect tradition-rich rituals, a charged atmosphere, and a team that relishes big-stage moments.
