Big 12 FB Viewership Numbers

cytor said:
The B1G is merely a mirage or perception. The viewership numbers are what they are. The B1G is brilliant at negotiating big TV contracts for their inferior product. I will give OSU, Mich their props as they are legit.... the rest of the conference (especially the west) is very dull and unwatchable football. Good cure for insomnia though.

no matter how boring the B1G is when it comes to their football, they have huge brands and even the lesser known football teams have big fan bases. Illinois and Purdue aren't exactly known for their football but they have bigger alumni populations than everyone in the current Big 12 not named Texas

Wonder how he is getting his data and kinda weird there isn’t a source but I’ll take it at face value. The Big12 will be fine and the solid third best conference but I would be a little concerned about those ratings without OUT. The Big12 only has 3 games this season that have broken 2mil without OUT and one was the Thursday night backyard brawl with Pitt. Top to bottom the Big12 with a tight 10 teams looks like great football to watch but replace OUT with those G5 teams and all of a sudden there are more doormats like the big ten west has.

I also wonder if those average viewership numbers are being skewed by the EPSN+/B12 Network numbers not being included in the averages. That would eliminate our bottom feeder games, while the B10 bottom feeder games on the B10 network would count against them.

I believe BTN numbers are counted. But not sure how, as I have seen multiple games with 1 viewership number. So including BTN #'s are hurting Big10 vs. Big12.

Same as Pac12 not including P12 Network in their #'s inflated overall #'s or when highlighting a school like WSU.

IMO only way to compare conferences is isolate each conferences games on like Network/Time slot.

I agree, for a while. I can start watching it and be entertained but I get exhausted quickly because there is so much talking going on. I've been married for almost 25 years and already have selective hearing.

I agree. There are a few very thorough/detailed articles on this very topic on the sicem365 website.
