It's awesome that AU/A&M outdrew FSU/Clemson by 4-5 million viewers.

It looks like that game was about the 5th or 6th most watched game of the season (to date).

Link or it isn't true.

I watched all these games minus that Ole Miss game. I am surprised by week four. Maybe everyone change the channel from the snoozer UT vs. Florida played. We all knew Florida was gonna win before kickoff.

Maybe if our games were a little more competitive we would appear more than once on this list.

Maybe if y'all scheduled a competitive non-conference game or had to play the elite of the East you would appear in more heavily watched games

The game was a blow out

Do you honestly think AU/a&m had near the audience to start each game?

While you're mourning yet another botched run at an SEC Championship, we Bammers are living it up.

We need more competitive non-conference games you say? Well we did play #14 (6-1) Virginia Tech. Not our fault they couldn't keep it within 3 TD's though

By the way, how is your grueling cross-divisional schedule going? I heard you had to play both UGA and Florida this year. What are they ranked?

I don't get how they know how many people are watching games.

What if I had 10 people at my house watching?

What about the sports bars that have 3 games on at a time?

What about my grandma who has the game on but is sleeping through most of it?

You don't remember having that chip implanted in your scalp?

All your points are good, but the thing is - they apply to everybody. FSU fans are just as likely to have 10 friends over to watch the game as are LSU fans. It all works out in the wash, if you accept the premise that X viewers are a representative example of ALL viewers. It's the best that can be done, barring a 100% survey that would likely get people killed.

They just call me and ask what I am watching and how many people are hanging out.

Shoot. That Texas A&M game was almost 5 mild higher than any of them. It's the Bama factor

Exactly what is 7.2 million or whatever? What exactly do those numbers represent. I figure more than 5-7 million people watched those games.

I'm not sure A&M will be nearly as popular to watch after Johnny Football goes pro.
