For the Love of the Game

Though the NFL is king, college football has impressed thus far this season. The lone non-NFL program to crack the Top Ten for the week of September 16th was the Week 4 matchup between Notre Dame and Georgia as it averaged 2.95MM OOH viewers, making it the third most-watched college football game of the season. 

 

Although the NFL had a clean sweep of the Top Ten for the week of September 9th, a few college football games stood out. The 3:30 PM game between Alabama and South Carolina was the most-watched college game of the week, averaging 1.16MM OOH viewers on CBS. Coming in a close second was the 7 PM matchup on ESPN between Florida and Kentucky, averaging 1.02MM OOH viewers.
