Did you see the slate last Saturday? It was hard to find 2 even slightly interesting games to be switching between during the day

Quite astute of you, Nuteye. We further noticed Ohio State isn't breaking any viewership news/records this season.

That’s because most of the country has lost interest in college football due to the lack of competitive balance. Southeast being the obvious exception.

CBS also reported that the CFB ratings haven't been this high since 1980!

Don't miss the forest for the trees, baws.

These kinds of viewership numbers prove the ongoing increasing value of the SEC TV Commodity. TV contract renegotiations will be fun.

It's gon' rain.
