College football TV ratings 2023

[micropolitan guy]

Ohio State led the nation. Colorado was # 4 but I suspect those high numbers were really front-loaded.

Kind of surprising that Oregon State (# 20) and Washington State (# 42) posted outstanding numbers even though the narrative was nobody wanted them because nobody watched them.

The weird thing is - there is one conference that hasn't taken any Pac-12 refugees, and it would actually be a good cultural fit for Oregon State and Wazzu - the SEC. Of course, that would require SEC teams to cross two time zones and the Mason-Dixon line, so it would never happen. But, I also think the middle-tier programs - the Auburns and Ole Misses and Tennessees - might appreciate teams they might have more of a shot with for conference wins.

Oh sure, and every time some white nationalist lunatic in eastern Washington does something we get lectured about SEC values.

I mean - ESPN has the four P12 schools with its Big12 deal - doing a nightcap on the west coast might be worth it. If NBC can tout a Maryland-Rutgers game in prime time, why not a Wazzu-South Carolina game starting at 7 or 8 p.m. PST?

Can't believe 669,999 other sickos watched Pitt football on the CW/ACC Network/MeTV/Whatever piece of crap station this turd of a program was on.

Something in that same contract also gives them stray ACC basketball games. They have a doubleheader tomorrow.

The Great Northwestern and Southeastern Conference. Sounds like a railroad.

I like it.

"GNWSEC, all aboard!"

Or just use this as the conference logo.

Liberty ranked 128th with an average of 21k watching their games. And they had at least 2-3 national shots during the week when they had the time slot to themselves. And they're going to the freaking Fiesta Bowl.

Wyoming averaged 213k. That's 40% of the state's population. That would be like 16 million viewers watching each UCLA game.

You could hold a ULM watch party in your living room.

They actually were fun, as were all of the 8 PM ACCN games that devolved into total chaos.

Or we finally get that long-awaited Oregon State-South Carolina match-up.
