I almost said in my earlier post who does Milroe think he is Ronnie Harmon. LoL
6.8 million for the Pop Tarts bowl. Peaked at 8.7 million.
The Big 12 championship had 6.9 million viewers.
I think our average throughout the season is usually between 800-900k.
For anyone denying bowls still matter.
One of the highest visibility opportunities of the year.
Top 3 all involve a big 12 team. Interesting.
ESPN ought to be learning that the key to ratings is not big brands but creating more games with some sort of stakes to them.
The way they have driven things is the opposite.
But college football is killing itself with all the recent changes! Non-CFP bowls have lost meaning!
Realignment and CFP expansion have made the sport more national. It’s given the sport an influx of interest
Most fans are casual fans and don’t have strong conviction on NIL. They don’t watch because these teams are amateurs. And the transfer rules have added parity and the hope that a program can change quickly
Our most viewed games this year:
6.9 million CCG
6.8 million Pop Tarts Bowl
2.28 Iowa
2.01 k state
1.91 Utah
1.24 TT
1.22 WV
1.20 Baylor
Safe to say it was the most “watched” season in Iowa State history? On top of that, we were often going up against the biggest game of the day
UGA Bama, Ohio State Oregon, UGA Texas, A&M Texas, ect.

OU AD might be in a little hot water. Fans are not happy. That’s awesome.
Not a fan of cheering for Michigan, but it can't be helped.
If we use 850k average for the regular season with the 6 regular season games listed in the second post, that would mean the other 6 were under 100k average.
