I think you misrea Atlanta. They did a 48, not 8. Other bigger and / or non-southern markets: Nashville did a 28. Columbus 23. New Orleans 27. DFW 18. New York did a 10.2, which is HUGE considering that market.But weren't their top numbers all small Southern markets? Atlanta only had an 8 where as Birmingham was a 57.
Yeah the smaller markets will look bigger since 1) Smaller southern markets without an NFL team tend to be more in to college football, and 2) Smaller markets means higher market share for any one big event, but that number is a very big number any way you slice it.
