Home Venue
YSU plays its home games at Stambaugh Stadium, nicknamed "The Ice Castle", which has an official capacity of 20,630, one of the largest in Division I FCS. If the team were to be moved to Division I FBS, they would likely play in the Mid-American Conference, due to their geographic location and former rivalry with the University of Akron Zips. The Zips, who are currently a member of the MAC, held contests against the Penguins for the Steel Tire from 1940 to 1995. Youngstown State leads the overall series 19–14–2.

Famous quotes containing the word home:
“Of course we will continue to work for cheaper electricity in the homes and on the farms of America; for better and cheaper transportation; for low interest rates; for sounder home financing; for better banking; for the regulation of security issues; for reciprocal trade among nations and for the wiping out of slums. And my friends, for all of these we have only begun to fight.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
