 Birmingham Most-Viewed CFB Market for 12th Straight Year
http://espnmediazone.com/us/press-releas...ies-on-tv/
For the 12th consecutive year, Birmingham was the highest-rated metered market for ESPN’s regular-season telecasts, averaging an 8.9 rating, 89 percent higher than second place Greenville’s 4.7 rating. Eight of last season’s top 10 metered markets finished the 2012 season among the top 10 again. Tulsa (seventh in 2011) and Las Vegas (ninth) both fell out of the top 10, tying at 12th with a 2.5 rating, while Nashville, Memphis and Austin jumped into the top 10.

If B'ham ranks so highly, why doesn't UAB get more coverage?

Because they actually want to keep those ratings.
