The only thing better than beating Ole Miss in front of 90k plus is beating them in front of 4,952,000

You better check that again. It was a defensive game with a boring offense of mostly running. No one watches that.

I originally did put 100k plus, but I knew the smart asses were gonna jump on me and stress that there weren't really 100k in attendance in the stadium.

Are you saying that it was the most watched game on ESPN this year?

I can't imagine that was the most watched college football game overall this season.

The Ole Miss-LSU game on ESPN and the Mississippi State-Kentucky game on CBS tied for the top spot with 3.3 overnight ratings on Saturday. The 3.3 on ESPN is the highest of the season on the network, topping the 3.1 that Georgia and Tennessee drew Sept. 27. According to sportsmediawatch.com, the SEC on CBS has won or shared the top college football ratings spot five out of seven weeks this season. That said, the 3.3 ratings posted on ESPN and CBS are the lowest for the No. 1 game of the week so far this season. The Ohio State-Penn State double overtime game on ABC was third this week with a 3.1 overnight rating.

1t. Ole Miss-LSU, ESPN - 3.3

Thanks, that makes sense. Thread title is misleading and I couldn't imagine it topped FSU ND.
