INDIANAPOLIS (KFGO) – The NCAA FCS championship game is moving out of Frisco, Texas.
The NCAA says the 2026 and 2027 championship games will be played at FirstBank Stadium on the campus of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee.
The games were supposed to be played in Frisco, but the NCAA says a recent announcement that Toyota Stadium will undergo a multi-year renovation project made it necessary to look at other sites.
“On behalf of the committee, we are very excited to bring FCS football to Nashville,” said Matt Larsen, athletics director at North Dakota State and chair of the Division I Football Championship Committee. “We considered a number of finalists, but Nashville set themselves apart. The opportunity to continue to grow the game and our brand in a setting like this is something we know the FCS community as a whole will be excited about.”
The NCAA says the location of championship games beyond 2027 will be determined by bid.
