Bryant-Denny Stadium is the on-campus home of the Alabama Crimson Tide football team, winners of 17 national championships. The stadium is the second-largest in the Southeastern Conference and fifth-largest college stadium in the nation. Prior to Bryant-Denny Stadium being built, the Alabama football team played on the Quad from 1893 to 1914 and on the University Field, renamed Denny Field in 1920, from 1915 to 1917 and 1919 to 1928. Denny Field was two blocks east of the current stadium, behind Little Hall. Mallet Hall and Parker-Adams Hall now stand on the north endzone and a parking lot covers the rest of what remains of Denny Field. Bryant-Denny Stadium was built in 1929 and christened George Hutcheson Denny Stadium after the 15th president of the University. In 1975, the state legislature renamed the stadium "Bryant-Denny Stadium" in honor of Coach Paul William "Bear" Bryant who led the Crimson Tide to six national titles.
