The Bearcats have made the playoffs in 18 seasons. They have also won or shared 27 MIAA titles. Northwest plays its games at Bearcat Stadium, built in 1917, and the oldest NCAA Division II stadium still in use. The field was expanded to 6,500 seats and a video screen was added in 2003 after Tjeerdsma began his run.〔(Northwest Missouri State University Football Media Guide - nwmissouri.edu - Retrieved September 22, 2009 )〕 This screen was replaced in 2014 by a 20-foot by 40-foot high-resolution screen with the scoreboard attached underneath. It plays its games with Pittsburg State University at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri in the Fall Classic at Arrowhead. Pittsburg has made four national title appearances since 1991. The Oct. 17, 2002 game was witnessed by 26,695—the largest number in MIAA history. Its best-attended local home game was 11,002 on Oct. 18, 2014 against Pittsburg State University. ==Conference== Northwest was one of the original 1912 organizers of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association. It has not played in any other conference. The conference headquarters until 1997 was in the Maryville, Missouri home of its first commissioner Ken B. Jones. In 1997 it moved to Overland Park, Kansas and has subsequently moved to Kansas City.〔 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Northwest Missouri State Bearcats football」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
