For my senior seminar paper, I plan on estimating the determinants of
college football revenues for universities. Appalachian State recently
conducted a feasibility study about moving from an FCS (Football
Championship Series) conference to a BCS (Bowl Championship Series)
conference. In order to justify ASU's move into a BCS conference, the university needs evidence that the program will bring more revenue to ASU.
I plan to use available data to measure how variables such as conference affiliation, ticket
sales, etc. affect fan attendance and revenues of a college
football team. I want to determine which variables are the most important in determining revenue and attendance, and if these variables are different between FCS and VCS schools.
