I'll have to be honest and admit for many years I thought Rutgers was a brand of hotdog frank from the Northeast...Which college football programs bring in the most TV viewers?
Numbers 71 thru 80. Did someone say that Rutgers brings home the bacon for the BIG?
- Wake Forest (398K)
- Temple (354K)
- Kansas (346K)
- Oregon State (295K)
- Rutgers (266K)
- Tulsa (265K)
- SMU (232K)
- Colorado State (130K)
- Fresno State (127K)
- Wyoming (126K)
Man I liked that ranking but hated the article. The guy opens it by saying TCU was ranked 24th because their numbers were skewed due to playing a game vs. Ohio State. However, the numbers were averaged over five full seasons of games, so at least 60+ data points. So the Ohio State game represented 1/60th of our data points.Which college football programs bring in the most TV viewers?

Also fails to point out that it was Ohio St's third most watched game of the regular season.Man I liked that ranking but hated the article.

Every team gets boosted by their big giant conference member. Ohio state inflates all Big 10 teams. Bama inflates SEC. Texas and OU inflated big 12 teams even TCU to be fair. That argument against TCU is stupid.
Doesn't matter. It still makes NY an in-market media town for the Big 10 network. Millions of dollars increase every month.And yet some people seem to think Rutgers delivers the NYC market.
You'd probably be guessing wrong.
Bottom line is, if TCU is so popular in this market, we wouldn't be in the position we are in, just desperately trying to remain relevant.
Sure but the results for each of the schools you named would have also been positively skewed by their game vs Ohio State.fairly certain penn state, iowa, wisconsin, and michigan draw a fair share of their own viewers
same for uga, auburn, florida, lsu, texas atm...

I am missing your point.which of those schools don't have similarly sized fan bases?
you are telling me that penn state vs michigan doesn't draw many viewers? what about uga -florida or auburn vs lsu?
the tcu-ohio state game is the epitome of an outlier no different than than tcu-baylor game last year when there was a weak long debate of had gary been treated properly in the dfw media
tcu can squeeze some damn revenue out of its ticket holders with the suites and donation requirements, but that doesn't put one penny in the pocket of the networks and if it isn't apparent that is what matters in all of this i don't know what to tell you.
Perhaps if he used capitalization...I am missing your point.

Or what about Rutgers, who plays penn State, Ohio state, Michigan and Michigan state each fall?? And that doesn’t include the years they also get Nebraska or iowa or wisconsin?Every team gets boosted by their big giant conference member. Ohio state inflates all Big 10 teams. Bama inflates SEC.
