Abilene Christian Wildcats football has been charging onto Texas Saturdays since 1919, calling Abilene home. The Wildcats built a winning identity with NAIA national championships in 1973 and 1977 and a stack of Lone Star Conference titles, then carried that momentum into the Division I era. Fans still talk about the 93-68 playoff track meet in 2008, and about playmakers like Wilbert Montgomery, Danieal Manning and Harlon Hill Trophy winner Bernard Scott. Game days at Anthony Field at Wildcat Stadium, opened in 2017, feel personal and electric: tailgates ring the stadium, families spread out on the grass berm, and The Big Purple keeps the tempo for a loud student section in full-on purple. If you’re chasing high-scoring football and West Texas hospitality, this is your spot.
