I’m thinking LSU-Ole Miss game goes over 15M this weekend with all the Lane hate watching



I would bet you any amount of money that it doesn't. Not even close.

The Lane Kiffin phenomenon is a regional one consisting of two small southern states. The only place outside of Louisiana and Mississippi where it's a phenomenon is this god foresaken board.

For perspective, 5.8 million people watched Lane Kiffin's highly-anticipated debut, even though it was the only real game on television.

I dont think it will break it because it was a major brand in the north vs a major brand in the south. Big Ten vs SEC. But part of the reason why the Clemson LSU game didnt get better numbers is because of the two hour lightning delay and the game didn't start until 10:00 ET.

Are the ratings down due to so many illegal feeds not appearing in the numbers?

Tennessee vs Georgia Tech only getting 1.8 million is a pathetic number... I don't care what it's up against.

Tennessee doesn't have near the following that it's fans think it does.

Shut up retard. We won by 3 tds and were a 13.5 favorite. It wasnt even close to being a game. Everyone was watching Texas come back from down 20 to beat the number 1 team. Why would anyone want to watch Tennessee kill a piss poor Georgia Tech team when you could watch a top 5 nailbiter?

We played against a team that lost week 1 to Colorado and we were directly competing with 2 top 5 teams. We will be fine. We have had plenty of problems through the years. It hasnt been our fans fault.

Oklahoma-Michigan matchup ranked second for the week with 8.22 million in the FOX “Big Noon Saturday” window, up 52% from Iowa-Iowa State last year (4.28M).

ABC, nbc, cbs will always outpace the other networks. Nothing new.

I am surprised that so many watched the abortion of the game.

Don't forget Tennessee hasn't field a good team regularly. Not surprised by the lack of followers. Good luck to your games moving forward.

The only time viewers give a runny bowel movement about Navy is when we play Army. We know our place in the college football world. Now…the only time viewers give a runny bowel movement about Auburn is when the Tigers play Alabama and SOMETIMES Georgia. Glass houses and all of that! Just sayin’. Tennessee vs GaTech will never have the same cachet as Tennessee vs Alabama or even Tennessee vs Auburn.

The game was within 2 scores for all but like 6 minutes of game time.

The comeback didn't even start until your game was about over.

Why would anyone want to watch Tennessee


Well this is the point. But if Tennessee had the following your fans think it does, it should have easily averaged above 2 million for a primetime game being played in the #1 CFB market in America for nominal viewership.

I was watching the Auburn game on SECN despite the fact it was a 37-point blowout... I don't care what other game was going on at the time. Most diehard fanbases do that. Apparently not Tennessee fans though as you claim, "Everyone was watching" some other game instead.

WTF are you talking about? Auburn just drew 4.24 million viewers against unranked Baylor a week ago.
