It sure does matter.
First, tickets sold does not equal attendance. Weeknight "sellout" games in Cassell are famous for the lovely rows of empty seats, many in prime areas, that are visible on TV.
Second, you are correct that not *every* student is necessarily studying at 7PM, 8PM, or 9PM on a weeknight. But many are, and many may have early classes the next morning. No students (including the players, who we sometimes forget are also students) have to study, take a class, or prep for a test the next day on a Saturday. Most people are more energized and more rested on a Saturday. If you don't think the energy level is higher for both players and fans on a weekend vs. a weekday night, you're kidding yourself.
