SEC ON CBS Continues High Ratings Roll
By: Tyler Peterson Nov. 12, 2013
CBS Sports' coverage of The SEC on CBS on Saturday, Nov. 9, which saw *No. 1-ranked Alabama defeat No. 13-ranked LSU in prime time (8:00-11:38 PM, ET), earned an average national household rating/share of 6.9/12, up 1% from last year's Alabama-LSU prime time game, which delivered a 6.8/12.
The 6.9/12 for Alabama-LSU is the second highest-rated College Football game of the 2013 season, behind CBS Sports' coverage of Alabama-Texas A&M (8.6/19; 9/14/13).
Through nine weeks of the 2013 SEC ON CBS season, CBS Sports is averaging a national household rating/share of 4.0/9 and 6.4 million viewers (Persons 2+). The 4.0/9 and 6.4 million viewer average is the highest-rated and most-watched, respectively, for SEC football games on CBS at this point in the season since the Network began airing primarily an SEC-only schedule in 2001.
The SEC on CBS is the highest-rated and most-watched College Football package on any network at this point in the 2013 season.
