Less than 70k people watched MSU-Toledo

[615dawg]

Granted, it was a blowout up against a close game involving #1, but these numbers are abysmal.

 

[Dawghouse]

Does my 20 minutes count?

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

I watched with one eye covered.

painful!

 

[Itsaboutus]

In the words of Brian and Robbie…. Eeeuuhhhh!!

 

[patdog]

I just wish it was less than 69,999 people who watched the game.

 

[ZombieKissinger]

It’s bad but the late game ESPNU viewership is usually terrible

I just wish it was less than 69,999 people who watched the game.

NICE

 

[MSUDC11-2.0]

If nobody watched it does that mean we can pretend it didn’t happen?

 

[onewoof]

Please ESPN. Please. Put us on the app only and make it hard to find the game in the app

 

[The Peeper]

Good or bad I never believe these numbers because they never call me to ask if I watched**

But seriously Clark, how do they REALLY know? They have no way of knowing if there is 1 person per household or 20 per household watching at any given time. Unless, they are you know, spying on us?**

 

[BIGDAWG44]

I would’ve watched but I was too busy watching paint dry

I have trouble believing that's possible. Even when we're bad, we get, what 40k in the stands pretty regularly. And there aren't 3 or 4 times as many people that watch on TV instead of going to games?

Would love to know the methodology for how they determine a viewership. I'm guessing it's seriously flawed.

 

[mcdawg22]

17K for same time ESPNU the week before. Toledo fans are rabid!!

Quit being negative. We were the 2nd highest rated game on ESPNU!

 

[Digging dog]

Bet it was less than 1/2 that watched the second half

Look, we get it. You think State is getting left behind if there’s some super conference. I swear its almost like you’re cheering for it to happen so you’re right.

70k on TV and maybe 30k in the stands. Any uptick in those numbers this week will be 100% attributed to Florida having a bigger fanbase than Toledo

 

[Seinfeld]

Granted, it was a blowout up against a close game involving #1, but these numbers are abysmal.

I know it seems silly, but this upcoming weekend really is huge for Lebby and his program. Put up a fight or god forbid, win, and he’ll earn some goodwill from a lot of fans by letting us know that there’s still a pulse.

On the other hand, lose to this pitiful Florida team in front of a home crowd while everyone watching knows that we haven’t even gotten to the meat of our schedule yet, and this fanbase may be entirely checked out. I know I’ll be

 

[Dawgg]

ESPNU almost always pulls a pretty low rating. It's not included in every ESPN package. It's like having your game be on ESPNNews.

FWIW... Ole Miss only pulled 400K on free broadcast television.

 

[vhdawg]

Does that count the people in the stadium?

 

[SchrodingersDawg]

I was 1 of the 6.6M after the first Toledo TD.

 

[Rezdog]

This is a positive

 

[RocketDawg]

I watched most of it, even into waiting on the second half comeback, but finally turned over to Georgia/Kentucky.

I'm certainly not cheering for it, but its already done. We were 32nd in average TV viewers last season. If you eliminated the LSU, Georgia and Alabama games, we were 93rd. Its a huge problem. Leach helped with it.

 

[Dawgbite]

I mean, after the first quarter I watched Ga and Ky. Besides who doesn't like a good 69?

Holy shít I can’t stop laughing at this. You’re calling it now when these media deals are years away from being done and there is so much that can happen in a short period of time. You are going to do cartwheels if State gets left out so you can tell everybody you said it 10 years ago.

When you removed those 3 games did you use the median of the rest of our games?

ESPNU ratings generally suck

I watched with one eye covered.

By halftime I was watching with one eye

12 teams with no win. Thank you Jesus for EKU. We are going to go toe to toe with UMass and may the tallest midget survive.

I scoured the internet and have done a lot of research. I found a miracle solution to make all the stupid and/or negative topics go away:
