It is an inconvenience to drive out of state, but we are talking about 5 times in 10 years. It’s not a huge drive either, just a couple of hours. I traveled this far twice for my high school’s football games just in the last year. I am sure any student that wanted to go could find a way, especially since we are talking about ND. The drive could, in fact, turn this series into an even bigger event for students.
I am sure that ND has revenue for its opponent strongly in mind when scheduling these games. Why else would they support such great academic schools and service academies year after year (Stanford, Army, Navy, Air Force, UNC, Duke, BC, etc.)?
