THIBODAUX, La. - Nicholls State University Athletics announced Monday its ticketing options and home kickoff times for the upcoming 2021 fall football season, which features a full 11-game schedule with five games at John L. Guidry Stadium.
 
Season tickets will be available starting July 1. New for this season, fans have the option to select a mini-plan ticket package as well as purchase a ticket for the Colonel Endzone Club, which will be located in the brand new Boucvalt Athletic Complex. The stadium will also have new upgraded chairback seats.
 
"We are beyond excited to introduce new options for our fans to experience Colonel Football," Nicholls Athletics Director Jonathan Terrell said. "This is a special season for our program. Not only are we returning to our normal fall schedule after missing it in 2020, but we are debuting our beautiful first-class Boucvalt Complex in what is our 50th year of football."
 
The 50th season begins with road games at Memphis and Louisiana. Following a bye week, the Colonels will have their home opener on Saturday, Sept. 25 as they face North Alabama for the first time since 1976.
 
Nicholls will have three home games in the month of October starting on the 2nd against HBU. The following Saturday (9th) will be the first River Bell Classic matchup of the fall schedule as the Colonels will host rival Southeastern Louisiana.  The final home game of the month will also feature a rivalry matchup as the Red and Gray welcome Northwestern State for the Battle of the Real NSU. The Colonels have won the last five meetings against the Demons.
 
The home finale is slated for Nov. 13 against UIW. Nicholls will hold Senior Day festivities prior to kickoff.
