To add on that's 46.5k average for the other CAA games and 32.4K average for the A10 games (including the UR/ODU game).

As bad as we are, the fewer people to see our game, all the better.

Thanks for the information. I was wondering if someone could look up the viewership for televised ODU football games this year and any comparative game viewership for other CAA televised (and CUSA if available) games. This would be very useful information for our Monarch nation to see and discuss.

If I'm reading this right, the playoff game on ESPN did pretty well:
1.1 rating 1,566,000 viewers

The site referenced by Dev doesn't have ratings for NBC Sports on any of the weeks ODU football played.
