Game Rating
Alabama-Texas A&M 8.6
Florida-Tennessee 2.8
Georgia-LSU 4.6
Georgia-Tennessee 3.5
Florida-LSU 3.4 *


A&M's game against Ole Miss (that didn't even start until 8:30 Eastern time and was up against the ALCS) drew a 3.37. A&M game against Rice (freaking Rice!) drew a 2.9 - that's right, A&M versus Rice on ESPN got better ratings that UF versus UT on CBS!!

A&M will have at least three, and maybe four, CBS games this year. (But I expect only three, since Mizzou is going to fold).

You will get 3. Alabama, Auburn, LSU. You won't get the Mizzou game because the Iron Bowl is that week.

BTW have we had any double-header weekends from CBS this year? We usually have 2

what's this? Explain it to me like I'm 10.
It's like a preliminary poll of the ratings for that game. The true rating for the game takes several days to compile, but the overnight MR is generally pretty close (+/-)0.1

Even though y'all had our number in the Big 12, I'm still pulling for you to win the East......if for no other reason than to piss off the entitled GA, FL, and TN. If Mizzou wins the East, they'll lose their collective minds.

Pretty sure this game was at noon and not 3:30.



You were right. It was noon ET/ 11AM CST. Just looked it up.

I bet Missouri/South Carolina would draw higher then Florida/Tennessee. If you have two good teams, it's going to draw better then only having one, even if they're both "traditional powers". That's just stupid bias.
