Davis Wade Stadium, College football stadium in Oktibbeha County, United States.
Davis Wade Stadium is an open-bowl football stadium with tiered seating around a green field marked with white lines. The west grandstand is double-decked and covered by a white roof, while the east side is mostly bare concrete with rows of red seats forming a pattern. A tall structure in the south end zone holds a video board topped with white text reading "MISSISSIPPI STATE" and "DAVIS WADE STADIUM".
The stadium was built in 1914 as New Athletic Field and received its current name in 2001 to honor Floyd Davis Wade Sr., who funded major expansions. This renaming marked an important recognition of his significant contributions to the facility's growth.
The Junction, a grassy park on the south side of the stadium, is where Bulldog fans tailgate under tents on sports weekends. It takes its name from the railroad that once ran through the tailgating area, and it replaced a set of adjacent intersections where five streets converged, known as Malfunction Junction; the streets were rerouted and a pedestrian park built on the site.

The west side gained a new concourse in the 2014 expansion, and the 2022 balconies replaced upper-deck seats in sections 301, 302, 312 and 313 and parts of 303 and 311.
