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.

“Every other evening around six o’clock he left home and dying dawn saw him hustling home around the lake where the challenging sun flung a flaming sword from east to west across the trembling water.”
