We're not far off from the Big XII

UCF was 40th...Louisville 48th...no Cincinnati, Rutgers or Houston.

Well, we did spot them a 20 year head start.....

Note that three games had to be "rated" for teams to be counted. Although I don't doubt that UCF is "up there" in terms of the numbers of fans watching, I have my doubts that the amount of interests is greater for UCF than it is for UL.

I know this from having lived down there: there is no way that Miss State has more interest in it's program than Michigan State does.

Do tv ratings really mean anything not hating on ucf but all this really tells me is who got the most primetime hours on espn.

This. If you were stuck on ESPN-News you were essentially invisible---especially if it was an 11:00AM start. Eventually ESPN-News will be similar to being on ESPN-U, but its going to take some time for fans to get used to looking there for live programming.

I went up and down that list a couple of times.

Is it accurate that the AAC is the only non "blessed" conference with a representative; and we've got two?

Wrong.

Actually, UCF's highest rated TV game this year was on at NOON (ABC).

Try again.

PS. Also, highest TV rated college games of the year weren't even primetime games...they were "CBS" afternoon games.

Was that the South Carolina game?

I'll say this about UCF TV games......once you tuned in, not many turned them off. All of them that I remember were still in question late in the 4th quarter.

Tomorrow TV Numbers are going to be interesting...NFL Houston vs. Jacksonville for the Bridgewater Bowl....funny College Football is Louisville @ Cincinnati on ESPN and Bridgewater is playing...I'm wondering what the numbers will look like.

Anyone find the USF- UCF game ratings from last weekend?

No one in Houston wants Bridgewater. Mariota, maybe. Personally, give me Matthews in the first round, and then McCarron in the 2nd.

That is prime time for college football.

With a potential BCS Bid ridding on the UC/Louisville game....going up against maybe the worst NFL game of the season...AAC should get a nice boost in TV ratings tonight (even though NFL will most likely win the night in regards to sporting events just from the gambling/FFL angles).

1. No, you don't want him more then likely because he plays for a certain University....the Texans Front Office and NFL People love him due to his accuracy and Football IQ...If he would have went to LSU or Miami you would probably love the Former US Army All American.

2. Mariota is not coming out, he is staying in school and also Zach Mettenberger the LSU QB who also had a 1st Grade now has a torn ACL...so all QB just got pushed up...you need a QB and also McCarron is not going to be there...can easily see the Browns taking McCarron with on of their two 1st Rounders..in the NFL if a QB has a Draft Grade as high as a Mariota or Bridgewater or even Derek Carr you take him unless you want another year with Matt Schab...

Roger Goodell really screwed up this Primetime NFL Game Matchup....

Get off your UofL hatred for a minute, Houston would love to have Teddy and they would be lucky to get him.
