Goes to show you that we weren't as thirsty for televised sports at the height of COVID as we thought at the time.

What is awesome is that 2/3 of the lowest rated games involve Georgia.

Not a drop off every year, but before last night, it was trending downward.

tl;dr- the Big Ten doesn't watch each other and the SEC does, and 2014 was a curiosity.

Yes. 2014 is an outlier, but the list generally corresponds with game-closeness.

Put the game back on the weekend and let people enjoy it. ESPN and their Monday night, let’s make some ratings out of nothing is garbage. Spare me about the NFL playing all weekend. Monday night title games are terrible.

See. The Midwest still matters big. Bigger than anyone.

Big10 alumni are the largest in the nation. Dwarfs the SEC and half their Dr. Pepper couch tv "alumni".

It's why FOX just gave them billions of dollars.

Damn I forgot Clemson and Bama played three fricking times in 4 yrs.

That era is basically what killed the Playoff as we know it.

I can't even remember anything memorable about any of those game except Bama getting their doors blown off in one (song even know what year) and Hunter Renfro using a pick play to get open.

Other than that, those games were as utterly unmemorable as the Mich/Wash game will be in 3 yrs.

Huh? The 1st 2 were good games.

Saban with the onside kick when he said he had to do something because they couldn't stop Watson.

2016 with the TD with 1 second left.
