Warning for lazy scuffows, degenerates, the reading challenged and those easily distracted by shiny charts: ****CBS COMPILED THE DATA BUT THAT DATA HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYONE WATCHING CBS OR CBS SPORTS. CBS SIMPLY COMPILED THE DATA****

So which schools won the battle for NSD viewers? Which schools captured the public's intention? Which college football brands proved to be so red hot that marketing departments are drooling, dreaming, and scheming about the possibilities even as I type? Which school and conference owned the day?

Here's the top five according to CBS' analytics/ratings system (three are SEC schools):



Big 3.

Here's the top 10:

So proud of y'all. And to pull off those rating is gonna pay dividends. The more people read/watch anything UK football related the more you'll benefit -- we all will. I know the coverage and interest UT has gotten this year is worth it's weight in gold with 2015 and 2016, recruits and beyond!

The SEC being 5 out of the top ten in page views:

PAGE VIEWS
1. TENNESSEE
2. Auburn

4. Alabama

8. South Carolina
9. Georgia

And 5 out of the top 10 in unique browsers.

UNIQUE BROWSERS
1. TENNESSEE
2. Auburn

4. Alabama

7. Kentucky

10. Georgia

Adds up to us OWNING 50 percent of all NSD views. And 6 schools making at least one of those categories.

I know AU had several potential 5* commits o nNSD but Tennessee had none to add. I think we were done at like 11AM and received all the LOI. Still had the highest ratings in the nation.

Honestly I don't use CBS Sports at all. I stay logged into TD and refreshed 247 team rankings from time to time. Grats on your CBS Championship!!

I have no idea. Was he part of the #1 class? Cause if not, I don't give a flip.

It was counting the main places folks. For example UTsports was #1. That's the University's website which did an outstanding job and had it's own coverage and interviews. It was actually far better produced and put out much better NSD coverage than ESPNu.
