I mean, the tweet clearly says it’s from 2014 and isn’t based on viewership at all. What are y’all even talking about?

Agreed. That and the previous map is tough to believe. Not a jab, but I also thought viewership would be down with games televised in LHN

Texas is mighty pink. We didn’t need a visual to tell us that.

Yes it appears sketchy.

You know there's a big community note on it right

As with the first map, the data is a reflection of the number of people in a given county who "like" a college football page on Facebook.

Why reference something from ten years ago?

Using Facebook as a metric is dumb.

The tweet got community noted.

But probably not far off. Birmingham is the largest college football viewership market and has been for some time.

Thats why I said a few posts after the OP it seemed sketchy. And it was not marked when originally posted. I also noted it had no reference as well.

Its probably close but some areas would have higher viewership percentage wise than it shows. Rural areas likely have a higher percentage of viewers nationally compared to metro areas due to “more things to do” in metros than rural.
