7. Notre Dame Stadium

School: Notre Dame
Location: South Bend, Ind.
Capacity: 80,795

Notre Dame Stadium is, by a considerable amount, the smallest stadium inside the top seven on this list. Actually, it’s the only one that holds less than 100,000 people. Yet, Notre Dame Stadium has been the venue of some of the greatest teams in college football history. Moreover, it’s also the home to possibly the greatest college football program in history.

As you walk onto the campus in South Bend, you can feel the tradition of ND football rub off on you almost immediately, whether you’re a fan or not. And ND has formed numerous rivalries over the years.

It’s a campus and a stadium rich with tradition and a feeling of historic significance as you walk around the hallowed grounds. Whether visiting the statue of Knute Rockne outside the stadium or catching a glimpse of Touchdown Jesus, there’s a lot to see in South Bend and Notre Dame Stadium.
