That’s more than any regular season game in any other sport and more than most playoff games in most other sports. Which is why this thing will keep expanding. 6 million live viewers is one of the most valuable tv products in existence
Yeah but if you compare that to the other two games you will see why G5s don't belong. They basically lost 20 MM viewers. Just proving that no one gives a shite about G5s except for the media trying to create the controversy.

Yeah because they had so many shots at the top prize before they expanded the playoff.

Yep. The second OU shite the bed in the Fiesta Bowl, losing on two of the greatest trick plays in history, people started saying G5 schools could hang with the big boys.
And the problem with pointing to bowl games in the BCS era is they completely discount to give a shite factor by the team who's championship dreams have vanished and they are playing a team that's hard to get excited about.
How come no one points out all of the G5 upsets are at a meaningless exhibition game and not in the regular season when both teams have something on the line.

Even if I was a die hard Oregon fan I probably wouldn’t have watched that JMU game.

Ohio State vs. Miami should get better ratings when they play the Cotton Bowl on New Year's Eve
I meant Tulane three years ago.

OK, that makes more sense. But it does not look like it based on what I can find online.
The 2023 Cotton Bowl Classic between Tulane and USC averaged approximately 4.17 million viewers.
The Ole Miss vs. Tulane College Football Playoff (CFP) first-round game in December 2025 drew 6.2 million average viewers
