Robert W. Plaster Stadium is home to the Missouri State football team. Formerly known as "Briggs Stadium", the facility provides support to the recreational and educational needs of Missouri State.

In 2014, the stadium was converted to a football-specific field surface and other renovations were made for a more intimate fan experience. The playing surface was replaced and moved closer to the west grand stand. In addition, the student side (east side) was fully replaced from the ground up and includes game day locker rooms, a new scoreboard and a party platform called "The Clif".

Summer of 2008 a nearly $2 million jumbotron scoreboard was added to the facility.
