So tOSU’s non-competitive blowout of PU had a higher viewership than Miami’s very competitive game where they picked up their first loss.Deleted the last week 11 table from sportsmediawatch. Looks like they've updated it now and also includes Michigan/Indiana numbers which was still missing from the other source.
That’s why Fox often picks OSU. They have solid to very good ratings regardless of who they play. They’re like 1 or 2 overall in drawing numbers.
Miami doesn't actually generate eyeballs in fact, their numbers were behind Minnesota's last year. Quite literally, the entire state of Ohio is tuned into OSU games.
It wasn’t necessarily Miami specific, they just happened to be the team playing. There are 49 other states, with not all of them having a local team’s game going on.
But wasn't it an "ESPN game" since ESPN owns the ACC Network?

Primes impact on CU $$$ cannot be overstated
Maybe it's been covered, games on Peacock don't get counted? We can be sure there was at least one viewer, @NickRU714 .
Yea it’s always on the graphics the networks and services that aren’t covered. It’s in the fine print.
The week 12 ratings for RU Maryland are pretty bad. On par with Cal Syracuse on the CW, however, maybe because the CW is on "free TV" for most people, that gets more viewers than FS1. FFS, EMU vs. Ohio had more viewers than the Rutgers/Maryland game in the same time slot. All the Rutgers fans must have been tuning in to watch Cole Snyder play!
I mentioned before how bad the FS1 option is. This is where the school fails in that they need to do something about our home market. no way should we be on FS1 on our home market
Ohio vs EMU was on a Wednesday. Not the same time slot when it is different days.
You put down Cole Snyder every chance you get! 😜 ---that was a joke!!!
I just watch whatever games are on during the early week period. #MACtion, baby!
Did you watch Akron and Toledo last night? That game was torture and it went to overtime! Jason Candle was a name that used to a rising star from the MAC, but he has kind of crapped the bed lately, and this season became a train wreck for Toledo.
It was interesting in that Akron scored on the 1st play of the game, and dominated until late when they fell apart and Toledo stormed back in 3 possessions. An OT game that was still 50 minutes shorter than ours vs Illinois.Did you watch Akron and Toledo last night? That game was torture and it went to overtime!

That game was not MACtion, it was TRACtion!!!!!
I didn't notice any airhorns, Ozzy laughs, or crazy trains. At Rutgers games, those things are 50 minutes right there.
That’s not how it works.
They had their own audio package, but I'm guessing their in-game ops crew has a clue and recognized there were 500 frozen bodies in the stadium total. Still heard The Purge siren every 3rd & 4th down.
Rutgers/MD on FS1 cable TV drawing better than CW broadcast TV that's available everywhere is wild. B1G should get CW as well next contract. The more broadcast networks over cable networks the better. FS1 is available in many more households than BTN, but FS1 seems to have weaker or odd production.
have a friend that sells ad space to the networks and I'l say it again; fs1 is a bad option to be on for a multitude of reasons I've mentioned over the years such as reach, channel selection, ad rates, etc... both schools routinely average far higher rates except when on FS1. this isn't rocket science
