Anyone else notice how the majority of their games are played in South Bend? Why does the NCAA allow that? (7 home, 5 away) A look back at previous years finds it is regularly done.

That is true of most of the big football programs. For example, Alabama for its regular season played 7 homes games, 4 away and 1 neutral site.Except for the conference schedules, college football set their own non-conference schedules. For Notre Dame they schedule all their own games since it is not affiliated with any conference. The NCAA has no power over scheduling.

Its not so much where they play as it is who they play.
