Houchens Industries–L.T. Smith Stadium, known locally as "The Houch," is the football home of the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Also carrying the field name Jimmy Feix Field, it is the centerpiece of WKU game days each fall. Red-clad crowds and a compact bowl give visiting Conference USA teams a genuinely hostile environment. The stadium sits at the heart of WKU's athletics campus alongside its other facilities.
WKU first played in the stadium in 1968, and a 2008 expansion lifted capacity to roughly 22,000 ahead of the program's move up to FBS football. The stadium set its official attendance record of 25,171 fans for a September 2021 game against Indiana, well above its listed seating capacity. It has hosted the Hilltoppers through their transition from the Sun Belt to Conference USA. The stadium's dual naming honors both the Houchens Industries sponsorship and former WKU coach L.T. Smith.
