Interesting.

 

[sambowieshin]

Pretty crazy considering all the other games being played last weekend.

 

[southindycat]

Florida's victory over Utah helped? More Western viewers might have resulted? OSU played earlier, right? I'd say we are probably slowly drawing more eyeballs up there when they aren't playing. Keeping an eye on us...

 

[HerrosHeroes]

And they all tripped balls when UK’s #1 Keidron Smith pick sixed the Gators!!!

 

[Fast3ddy]

I’m sure a lot of UGA and UT fans watched to see. This was an early game that was gonna set the tone for the East.

 

[StubbornPenny]

Love these night games, seems like they draw good ratings. Keep us in the spotlight!!

 

[SaltyCat22]

We only had to go up against USC/Stanford in that time slot. And ain’t nobody got time for that west coast garbage. They can have their skateboards, surfing, and Vans. Totally rad, dude.

I'd let them share their edibles.

That’s a crazy good number

Wonder who the 2018 game was between?

20M watched Monday night NFL.

 

[backinky2018]

Anything over 4MM viewers is considered gold for Tv. excellent showing for us.

20M watched Monday night NFL.

That's the most watched Monday night game in over 20 years I believe though. Definitely much higher than normal. Idk if it was the match up, people jonesing for football, the curiosity of Buck and Aikman moving.....whatever the reason football numbers have been gold the first few weeks of this season

Alabama v Texas shattered records too. It seems the reports of NIL destroying college sports have been greatly exaggerated.

The announcers said something to the effect that Florida's offense looked like it was starting to find some rhythm right before the pick 6, and I was thinking that it looked to me like the UK defense was fixing to make a play. Sure enough, very next play....

Cal says those are pretty good figures for a "Basketball School" ;-)

 

[*CatinIL*]

A bunch of people in FL & KY and then a bunch of people curious about whats going with the UK FB program. I bet some people watched to see if KY is as good as people are saying.

That behavior is not permitted here in the buybull belt....

 

[Backer cutter]

That behavior is not permitted here in the buybull belt....

I’d beg to differ lol

 

[The-Hack]

Good ratings likely help on game selections for the future!

And good to see ESPN make bucks, considering the billions to be paid to the schools, the next 15 years.

 

[dyersburgcatfan]

Hope a bunch of recruits were watching.

For a guy that can be so sensible & knowledgeable when it comes to UK sports. It's amazing that you can be so lost & don't have a clue about what's going on when it comes to politics & what's going on in our country.

 

[Fox2monk]

I'd let them share their edibles.

The only good decision the West Coast has ever made politically That I agree with. Don’t wanna start a war on here just an opinion.

 

[hmt5000]

20M watched Monday night NFL.

652 million watched the Apollo moon landing.

 

[TOMCATS1990]

That will only help Stoops and recruiting.

It had a better time slot.
