It was named for its primary benefactor, William Skelly, the founder of Skelly Oil.

In February 2005, the north stands were demolished to make way for the new Case Athletic Complex, reducing the seating capacity to 35,542. In 2007–2008, the stadium was renovated, reducing capacity to 30,000The stadium, located on historic U.S. Route 66, hosted the Oklahoma Outlaws of the USFL in 1984.
