The Kentucky State Thorobreds football program represents Kentucky State University in the sport of American football. The Thorobreds compete in the Division II (D2) of the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) and the Western Division of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC).
The Thorobreds have competed in football as members of SIAC since the 1996 NCAA Division II football season (in 1995, their games against other members of SIAC were treated as non-conference contests). From 1967 to 1984, the program competed in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) as a football independent. The program competed in the Midwest Athletic Association (MAA) in earlier years, including during its 1934 and 1935 seasons.
