Born in 1887 in Indianapolis, Butler Bulldogs football brings Division I FCS energy to the heart of the city. The Bulldogs have stacked conference crowns across eras, highlighted by Pioneer Football League titles in 1994, 2009, 2012 and 2013, a 2013 FCS playoff berth, and a 2009 PFL Gridiron Classic win. Legends like innovative coach Tony Hinkle and record-shattering running back Arnold Mickens still shape the program’s identity. Each fall, the annual Hoosier Helmet showdown with Valparaiso adds extra bite to the schedule. Home Saturdays unfold at the 7,500-seat Bud and Jackie Sellick Bowl, where intimate sightlines, a lively student hill in the south end and friendly pregame traditions create an inviting, close-knit atmosphere. Join the Dawgs and celebrate the moments that make college football unforgettable.
