Some conclusions: LSU (and Clemson) don't have the national brand to pull a bigger audience.
Emmert and ESPN execs will take notice. CFB is not in the sports business but in the television business. LSU (and Clemson) are bad for business.

Champs. Your ratings mean nothing.

Damn I am so upset that there were a few less million people watching my team win multiple championships as opposed to other teams.

More views than the last two Bama vs Clemson games

2019 - people were tired of seeing Clemson
2011 - people outside of the south weren’t interested in an SEC regular season rematch
2003 - the #1 ranked team in both the AP and Coaches polls was left out of the BCS title game
2007 - idk. Maybe because LSU had 2 losses?

Looks like people didn't want to watch Bama. That's why ratings were better this year even with the extra long gap with the game being a week later than usual.

That's because they expect LSU to curb stomp their foes..
Thus call their BMs, take their lady out for dinner & a flick..
Then check the boxscore in the AM, to see if their props did as well as their side & totals.

I think it’s due to circumstances for each game
2003 Oklahoma had gotten shellacked in the big 12 title but made the bcsnc anyway
2007 two loss LSU vs an overmatched Ohio St
2011 a bullshite dud rematch
2019 eh, my only guess is people thought it might not be close

Hey dumbshit, when the outcome of the game is for the most part known already “3-1” when playing in the title game. Why watch the inevitable, when you know the outcome might as well do something more productive!

Who cares? They're 3-1 in those games, bitch.

I’m surprised more people didn’t watch Clemson beat Bama in 2017 and 2019 NC games. People usually love seeing Bama lose it doesn’t happen often.
