Ok, so you can't actually address the fact that college football lost almost 50% of it's viewership.


Has it though?
You’re comparing this game to a 3:30 game on CBS

Let’s compare this to a similar game at a similar time on CBS?
Last years Notre Dame Georgia game, 8:00 on CBS

No. 5 – (7) NOTRE DAME at (3) GEORGIA – Saturday, Sept. 21, 8pm EST, CBS

Viewers: 9.29 million

Rating: 5.4

Result: Georgia 23 – Notre Dame 17

Actually that night Texas was playing Okie State and Oregon were playing Stanford, so Notre Dame vs UGA had some competition with other big games stealing viewers.


Which big draw did Alabama-UGA go up against?

They basically were the only thing to watch primetime and had almost 50% drop to a comparative primetime game with Alabama-LSU.

Now we use nuance ? Yet you compare previous years NBA ratings in June to 2020 ratings when NBA playoffs / Finals are up against NFL / MLB playoffs / CFB,etc...... June when the NBA picks up the casual NFL & CFB fans who have few sports options to a saturated market in October .

You all don't want a reasonable "discussion" just a little alt right circle jerking.
