Rose Bowl

A SWOT analysis is an effective way to look at an organization, and understand its position in the marketplace.

The game itself occupies prime television real estate, further enhancing brand visibility. The Rose Parade is an ancillary event that is also quite famous, again serving to build the brand. Further, the game is contested between the top team in the Pac-12 and the top team in the Big Ten, which means that the game is usually going to be entertaining, with very good teams involved.

That said, there are threats as well. The major threat is that there is a lack of control on Twitter, and people could convey negative messages on the Twitter account.
