National Title Game Ratings
Posted on 1/12/21 at 5:44 pm

ESPN says last night's national championship game drew 18.7 million viewers. That is .... yeesh.
Per @paulsen_smw, the previous low for a BCS or CFP title game was 21.4M for USC 55, Oklahoma 19 in 2004.
In fact, both of the semifinals actually got slightly higher audiences than the championship game. ... That has definitely never happened.

Playoff committee nailed it 
On a serious note. Putting it on a Monday night is idiotic

Not surprising. Bama fatigue and COVID year.
The bubble has burst.

CoVid has hit the ratings hard for every sport. Even the NFL had a 20% drop in ratings this past Super Wild Card weekend compared to last year's Wild Card games.

I gave it a solid half before I got bored and did something else.

You're right. There's also a lot going on politically right now which has overshadowed pretty much everything and really put sports on the back burner.

For the first time in 30 years, I did not watch any of the playoff games, or the College championship game. The reasoning wasn’t COVID related.

Not sure how they tally those along the game’s timeline, but I’d bet there were a ton of folks like me with no allegiance to either squad that needed -1.5 quarters to peace out on the broadcast.

Yeah, the game was over by halftime. Really disappointing game.

Got downvoted. Nobody wants to watch Bama play football games, especially this season
Too regional, too boring
