2016 TV ratings

[moonshine]

9/17/16 v the U: 955k ESPN
10/12/16 v ULL: 541k ESPN2 (unfortunately less than the 4:00pm Gunsmoke rerun on TV Land - 663k)

Total for the 2 games: 1.496mil (to the best of my knowledge, these ratings numbers don't reflect streaming viewers)

I'm sure the U game could have cleared 1 million had App kept it competitive. Guessing we could've gotten between 600-750k had ULL been competitive with App.

Interesting info. The comparison with Gunsmoke is interesting but I am more curious about how it compares to other Wednesday night games recently. Any idea what most of these draw?

[moonshine]

Unfortunately, SEC Network is not Nielsen rated but I'd imagine the OT game against the Vols cleared a million. As for this past Wednesday's game, App v ULL went up against the NHL on NBC at 8pm where St. Louis v Chicago drew 905k.

84, here are a few numbers for comparison sake:

Thursday
9/29/16 - UCONN v Houston: 1.421m ESPN
9/29/16 - KU v Texas Tech: 513k FS1

Thurday
10/6/16 - Temple v Memphis: 626k ESPN

Wednesday
10/5/16 - GS v stAte: 497k ESPN2

Great info. Thanks for posting. We were lucky the ALDS were both sweeps, so there wasn't any baseball to draw folks away from us. Those are good numbers and as you point out, a lot of folks seeing us.

What was Dr. Adams first name?

What was Dr. Adams first name?

Doc ---

[appfan83]

Good answer but not the correct one. His given Christian name was not reveiled until the 1965 or 1966 season and when is was given, all of the cast was shocked when they learned it. Can you tell that I watch a lot of Gunsmoke episodes?

[WataugaMan]

Was it Bluebonnet? Like Boss in the movie Open Range.
