Great. Now they'll never put them back on TV and there'll be MANY more commercials next time.

I'm hoping that these stats can be used to sell ad space on actual TV stations next season so we can get more games on 1, 2, and U. This is clear evidence that there is a market.

I wonder what the number would have been if it was shown on "regular" TV.

What were the softball ratings?? Unless it is the Oklahoma backstory, no way they get these numbers.

It is worth noting that over 11% of the viewership on ESPN3, which had 100 total games, came during just the LSU vs ULL game. That is unreal. ALso, that doesn't include viewers from the first 2 LSU games. Basically, I would guess that LSU games made up about 20% of all online viewing.

I can't wait to see how the Men's CWS numbers compare

I doubt they would rather put LSU on tv for a regional. Talk radio had a guy on earlier this week from baseball america explaining the Reason teams like UCLA and Cal St. make tv with 500 people in th stands is because their fans would never seek them out on ESPN 3 to watch them so TV is the only way to get coverage for those teams. ESPN knows every single LSU fan will seek out whatever means neccessary to watch the game.

That's only talking about the Knoxville market.

I would attribute this to the only thing being on and the final games. What did the Regionals draw? One of these things is not like the other.
