Birmingham, AL is always #1 in college football TV ratings.
Other top cities tend to include Columbus, OH and Knoxville, TN.

Too many transplants that don't care about CFB to be #1 IMO

Its always cool to visit the hall of fame though when you're in town for the game.

Everybody knows CFB is popular in Atlanta and that y'all have a very broad mix of fanbases.

But Atlanta also has more people from other areas of the country that don't care at all about college football than any other city in the South outside of Florida.

CFB tv ratings are better in cities like Birmingham, Nashville, Knoxville, Memphis, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, etc.

Isn't Nashville regularly at the top of CFB ratings. I know Birmingham is up there as well.

Thanks for that brilliant statistical analysis

What?

Atlanta's the biggest city that's a top 10 CFB market

And WGAS about % of TV sets watching the game anyway?It's the number of eyeballs watching.You really think Greenville SC or Oklahoma City is a better CFB market and has more CFB fans than Atlanta?Once again,idiotic.

Word. I must have seen numbers for total viewers. Either way, I would say Birmingham and Nashville are college football crazy. Hats off to Bham.

The fact that Nashville has two pro teams and is still that passionate about college athletics is pretty cool.
