Couldn't the label of just waited a week or two before doing the push and had a shot at getting a billboard #1? It seems like they could've just waited out Scotty McCreery and had a clear path to #1.

A lot of these #1 pushes are all pre-arranged ahead of time, so they likely had to take what they can get, and there's no guarantee that country radio was interested in just letting this one linger any longer in the top 10 than it currently has been. We recently saw Walker Hayes' "AA" get a final push to secure a top 5 peak, because radio was ready to let it go, so an opportunity to just keep it treading water long enough to have its "turn" at the top wasn't an option, and I think "7500 OBO" is in a similar boat, as is Jake Owen's single which is scheduled for its final push soon, too.

This is probably one of the more disgusting pushes I’ve seen in a while. A 1550 spin bullet and he will probably get #3? I get the push weeks are usually pre-arranged, but they could’ve tweaked it a week and waited out Scotty and Tim could’ve gotten at least a #2 peak, if not #1.

Keith had a similar massive push a few weeks ago, ending the week with a 1750 spin bullet. He fell short of #1 though.

LMAO at that bullet! The country airplay charts are ludicrous.

I love this song but it had no business being a #1 hit, sadly. These manipulative pushes are annoying.

Thankfully, this will probably only be a #1 on MB. Scotty and Morgan’s higher audience levels will give them an advantage when it comes to Billboard.

While I don't like the pushes, I do believe that this would have went #1 naturally if it waited Scotty out, but due to the pre arranged push weeks it just had bad timing. It's not like Keith's where there's no way it would've went #1 naturally.

I don't know it felt like even before the push weeks this song was running on fumes it felt like compared to the rest of the songs around it.

Scotty's song lost spins this past week, but let me guess; it has a push week next week and will miraculously recover lol

I'm just glad this one finally peaked. I'm excited to hear some new music, it's been two years now since Here On Earth was released.

Tim will tumble, Wallen is falling, Dylan Scott and Jake Owen doesn't push for a couple more weeks. Jake starting next week then Dylan the following week. Scotty will have #1 next week on MB even if he stays flat for the next 7 days.

A lot of stations must’ve really been ready to drop this lol. Lost 2700 spins on top of 1700 spins the song gained on its push week.

This song's fall kinda supports the reasoning behind why the label chose to do a big push when they did. Clearly this was a case where radio was very ready to cut this one from their rotation and waiting out bigger hits like "Damn Strait" just wasn't a viable option.
