Week 8 EOC: Deeper Meaning

To many games will overload the customer, or the people watching the college football bowl games. Making the games more rare will draw in a bigger crowd, as they won't have as many opportunities to see the games. Also, only having either the major teams, or teams with a major player playing will draw more attention than the basic teams that not many people are interested in. The scheduled date and time are important as you need to place the game at a time where many college football fans will be able to see it, and the channel should be available for everyone to watch it. You may even draw in new fans if u place it after the right show. The date is important because it needs to be on a day where people are excited and able to watch the game. Placing it on a week where there's Final Exams in college would be bad, as a majority of college sports fans support the college that they are attending. Placing it on a holiday could be good or bad depending on the holiday. If there are major sports games that day, such as the NBA or NFL, then that would be a bad day. Also, if most people are out celebrating something, then that is also a bad day. The games will get the most attention on a day and time where everyone can and will want to watch them. Networks should be aware of what is on other shows and what is scheduled around the game so they know where the attention is. If The Walking Dead is on another channel with a new episode at the time of the bowl, there is a chance the amount of people watching the bowl would be cut in half. If that show is right before the bowl, however, many of those people who don't change the channel would end up watching the bowl along with the people who were going to watch it anyways.
