Or a mid-level country club, not too difficult to get into, but a lot of the residents think they're way better than they are.

haha. But you could say this about UF and FSU too.

Kentucky had more average viewers than Miami? Yikes. This “brand” is dead.

When your games are on ABC 3 times on Saturday and ESPN main then you collect viewers by default.

I believe it was our second game of the season that wasn't even on the ACC network. It was on their streaming service only. We had another game on the ACC network that ESPN cut away from in the 4th quarter.

Those 2 definitely skewed our numbers.

I'd like to see our average viewers without those 2 games. I'd also like to know what was our average was for our games on ABC. How about the games on ESPN?

Miami played on ESPN main and ABC 9 times this year.

Looks like Kentucky had the perfect ratings storm this year. They had four games on ABC and the other eight were on platforms that aren't Nielsen rated (SECN or SECN+/ESPN+).

Neither ACCN or ACCNX/ESPN+ are Nielsen rated so those games wouldn't have impacted our average one way or the other. Reading back their methodology, I think they excluded BTN as well because the other conference networks aren't rated.

I wanted a thread on tracking our TV ratings throughout the year. As realignment continues to chug along, TV ratings become more and more important.

Feel free to add media related stories here as well and help pull ratings as they're sometimes difficult to track down (especially for those ESPN+ and ACCN games).
