The Campbell Fighting Camels football program represents Campbell University in American football. The team is located in Buies Creek, North Carolina, North Carolina. Campbell competes in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) as a member of the CAA Football, the football league operated by the multi-sports Coastal Athletic Association (CAA). Campbell's first football team was fielded in 2008, and they play home games at the 5,000-seat Barker–Lane Stadium in Buies Creek, North Carolina.
The Fighting Camels transitioned to offering scholarships in football (they already offered them in other sports) and joined the Big South in 2018, where most of the school's other sports teams were already competing. In 2023, the football team transitioned into CAA Football, coinciding with the rest of the athletic program joining the multi-sports CAA.
