I’ll take the under. Wouldn’t surprise me if it isn’t even the most watched LSU game of the season. Not that many people care about Ole Miss

The 49th and 50th ranked state aren’t going to generate the interest you think it will.

1973 Sugar Bowl when #3 Notre Dame defeated #1 Alabama 24-23. Great game.

Yes, because that's what people base their sports interest on historically.

Pretty much a guarantee that it’s doing around 10m or above at this point. The Bama games in 2019 (16.6m) and 2011 (20.1m) are the ones to beat for LSU

No, but to break records you have to get the casual viewer from elsewhere to tune in.

I actually remember that game. I was seven years old—being in South Louisiana, we obviously were for the Catholics over the Bammers! ????????

Nope OSU MI 2006. You may recall after that game all we heard was how screwed up the BCS was because it didn't create a rematch. The FL came in and blew out OSU which started the era of SEC dominance in college football.

GoC was a close second.

For ole miss it’s probably the biggest in years since they haven’t been relevant for so long. For lsu it’s just another game

Ole Miss loses this game and their season is severely more impacted than ours should we lose. I live around these people and I can assure you a loss to LSU (especially now with all their mouth-running) will kill them.

Re-read the question? Also

Even if question was, most watched game of all time I doubt a game that happened over 50 years ago would be on top.

I kind of hope Ole Miss doesn’t lose before this game, but it wouldn’t surprise me. Golding is arse.

I'd draw up half my offense to get Dae'Quan Wright the ball for that game just to troll Ole Miss.

I wouldn't put it past Lane tbh

Ole Miss just isn’t a big national draw but in the regions of the country where their fans are, no one will miss it.
