Chicago State University kicked off a new chapter in its history Saturday, taking the field for its first-ever college football game as it opened its inaugural season at SeatGeek Stadium against Roosevelt University.
Tailgates, grills and enthusiastic fans filled the stadium grounds ahead of the highly anticipated matchup, which drew alumni, students and supporters eager to witness the program's debut.
For some Chicago State alumni, the moment was years in the making.
"There was promises of it when we were in school 20 years ago and it didn't happen so 20 years later to see it were excited," said Chicago State alumni Tameca and Jordonna.
Others said they wanted to support the university as it launches its new program.

Thinking about taking your family to a college football game in Utah this year? Be prepared to pay. How much depends largely on the opponent.
The University of Utah opens the season Sept. 3. at home against the Idaho Vandals, a Football Championship Subdivision or FCS school in the Big Sky Conference. A single-game ticket starts at $38 on SeatGeek.
But when BYU plays Utah in Salt Lake City in November, the cheapest seat starts at $331.

And speaking of BYU, you could see the Cougars take on the Utah Tech Trailblazers, also a Big Sky team, in the first game of the season, for as low as $88 per ticket, according to SeatGeek.

The 2026 WNBA All-Star Game is likely experiencing the Caitlin Clark effect as the Indiana Fever star point guard is expected to take the floor on Saturday night in Chicago as the captain of Team Weatherspoon.
Over the past seven days, the average sale price on the secondary ticketing platform SeatGeek is $425. That's about 35% higher than at the same point ahead of last year's game, according to data provided to me by the company.
Clark, who is the 11th highest-paid female athlete per Forbes, missed the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game due to a groin injury.
The Des Moines, Iowa native is currently averaging 21 points and nearly eight ****** ists per game during the current regular season. The Fever are first in the Eastern Conference with a 17-10 record.

NEW YORK — For many of the New York Knicks fans who attended Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Monday night, buying tickets was a waiting game.
The first Finals game at Madison Square Garden in 27 years commanded historic ticket prices — as in, what you’d expect to spend on a used car or several months of New York City rent — but some diehards simply refused to be denied.
Just ask Jared Sage, 25, of Greenwich Village, who surveyed the resale marketplaces before finally pulling the trigger through SeatGeek for $6,900 seats located in the front of a 200-level section.
“I was going to be here no matter what,” said Sage, a lifelong fan whose middle name is Reed thanks to Willis Reed.
As of Sunday afternoon, the cheapest prices on secondary ticket websites such as SeatGeek, StubHub and TickPick all exceeded $6,000.

Falling prices, fluctuating availability and a lack of clarity. With one week to go until the 2026 World Cup kicks off, many questions remain unanswered about match tickets.
Fifa promised the event would be sold out, but there are thousands of tickets available for sale across several platforms.
BBC Sport has found tickets for matches involving the smaller nations are now available well below face value - across Fifa's own resale site and secondary marketplaces.
World football's governing body has itself been accused of dumping inventory it now cannot sell on SeatGeek.
So just how 'sold out' are the matches? Will we see a repeat of last summer's Club World Cup when tickets were sold off at knock-down prices to fill stadiums?
