No school or team is going to do that.  What happens is you get fans acclimated to $10 tickets who then are actively turned off when you raise prices when the team is good.  In theory you should see demand spike when the team gets better - but that’s not what actually happens.  Lots of teams have tried what you suggest - there’s a reason they don’t do it anymore.

Plus the school would start undercutting season ticket holders looking to sell tickets to that game - which effectively devalues season tickets.  Paying $125 for a seven game season ticket isn’t a great deal when the school signals during the season games are only worth $10.

The school has done what it can to creating pricing tiers which should be attractive to a broad audience.  Dumping tickets to try to artificially create a sellout Friday would be a short term strategy with horrible long term consequences.  If the prices are still too steep - then we’re not going to have a sellout and shouldn’t chase it either.
