OT: 2023 CFB TV Ratings Thread

This might be a dumb question, but how do they calculate the number of viewers for people who channel flip back and forth? I was curious which game would draw more the ACC champ game or BIG champ game, same time slot. I was bouncing back and forth between commercials... I'm sure many millions of others were doing the same. How do they calculate that?

Old days they had Nielsen families that had boxes that tracked viewing habits and they still might have that now for some households. Now with YouTube tv or what not they must have something similar. Frankly all these companies track and know what we all do so tracking tv viewing is likely a piece of cake lol.

But you’ll also see it’s given as average viewing and sometimes notes peek viewing so they’re aware of how any are watching what and when etc…it’s not a static number that’s given but the average over the course of the event/program.

Can’t vouch for the data, but this guy claims to have tallied numbers for all teams (assumed zero for each game he couldn’t find data):
