Does the ACC profit from Notre Dame football

When they play in ACC stadiums I guess there’s the benefit of a bigger crowd and more paid attendance. As far as non-monetary profit goes, ACC schools get a quality opponent on the non-conference schedule, which helps with SOS and probably some with recruiting.
There were a lot of green and gold in the stands when we played ND but begs the question, if they bought tickets through Stubhub or whatever, how does the University benefit from that? Concessions are concessions, do ND fans eat and drink more than other fans? I fail to see any real substantial benefit.
Went back and looked it up, scheduling ND at home is basically the same as having UK at home, about 58,000. I guess more ND fans would stay overnight and eat at restaurants in town so I could see how the city might benefit from that but again that's not the University.

I will add despite the fact that I wasn't at the Notre Dame game last year--being represented by my son and daughter being in the same stadium for the first time in ten years--but I'd bet that the money that went towards NIL DURING the Notre Dame last year with all the markups on drinks/concessions in the Club Suites and that scan donation far exceeded any other the two years they have been drawing into NIL at L&N.
