College baseball outdrawing the MLB but yea, nobody cares right?
quote:
Despite airing on ESPN2 to accommodate the NBA Draft, Thursday’s LSU-Wake Forest Men’s College World Series semifinal averaged 2.09 million viewers — the largest audience for the event since Game 2 of the Oregon State-Arkansas final in 2018 (2.16M). The previous high was set just three days earlier on Monday, when the same matchup averaged 2.02 million on ESPN.
Outside of the final, this year’s three LSU-Wake Forest games (Wednesday’s matchup averaged 1.89 million) delivered the three-largest MCWS audiences ever on the ESPN family of networks.
The top two also rank as the most-watched baseball or softball games on cable this year, college or pro. The top game of the Women’s College World Series — Oklahoma’s title-clinching win in Game 2 of the Final — averaged 1.86 million. The top Major League Baseball game on ESPN so far this season, Red Sox-Yankees on Sunday Night Baseball two weeks ago, averaged 1.94 million
Overall, LSU’s five games have been the most-watched of this year’s tournament. Their three games against Wake Forest hold the top three spots and their two games against Tennessee rank fourth and fifth at 1.80 million (Tuesday) and 1.61 million (last Saturday) respectively.
Not only have the LSU games been the most-watched of the tournament, they have also generated the largest year-over-year gains. Thursday’s game scored the biggest jump at 165 percent, though some of that is because last year’s comparable Mississippi-Arkansas game aired in an earlier timeslot (858K). The apples-to-apples comparisons are no less impressive, with gains of 87 percent last Saturday, 62 percent Monday and Tuesday, and 40 percent on Wednesday.

LSU is the face of college baseball, that’s for sure.

LSU is the Alabama of baseball. If it weren’t for Nick Saban coaching at LSU, nobody would have a clue who LSU is

Uh oh, there will be that one Bama poster, and a few Georgia posters in here quick to claim they don’t give a shite about college baseball. That’s what losers say.

You’re one of the worst posters on this entire site, and that’s saying something.

If you just know a little boy about college baseball you know LSU is fun to watch at CWS.

LSU Baseball and Alabama Football are going in two completely different directions
Go and swing your little baby dick somewhere else.

Serraneaux has about 2 million alters so this makes sense.

Because nobody gives a shite about college baseball. Doesn’t matter what dumb southerners think.

Then why take time out of your precious day to post in this thread if you truly don’t care? What poverty program do you root for?

I think that Alabama fans would support baseball. They did during the 80’s and 90’s. They just need a competitive product. You definitely saw signs of it this year. And then those fans got shite on by everyone here for showing up.

Georgia says they don’t care about baseball, but they take LSU’s pitching coach as their head coach.

A college semifinal game barely beating out MLB teams who plays 162 regular season games. Wow so impressive

Apparently there’s quite a few million that do.

And outdrew EVERY MLB GAME PLAYED THIS YEAR. The Red Sox and Yankees were the closest. Scrub teams though right? Nobody follows them.
I guess nobody cares about MLB either? According to your logic.

Do you want to go over all the other evidence that nobody gives a shite about it?
