The Alabama-aggy game did score a higher rating than Florida-LSU, at 3.7 to 3.6.

The LSU game had more viewers, but the poster stated higher ratings, not more viewers. He was technically correct.

Neither game scored a higher rating or had more viewers than the TEXAS-Oklahoma game, though.

Good. More people got to see the overrated goofball lose another big game.

Well to be fair, it’s not exactly comparing apples to apples...broadcast vs cable.

For those that aren’t familiar with how TV works, CBS/ABC/NBC/Fox are broadcast TV. Everyone in America has broadcast TV, including the poors.

CBS and Fox and ABC have failed massively if they don’t lead the ratings on a given Saturday. It means they made bad programming decisions (aka chose bad games) or have bad league contracts if they aren’t at the top.

Oklahoma definitely draws viewers this year no matter who they are playing
