🏈 Interesting numbers: A&M's TV exposure? CBS Numbers as a whole. Significant improvements.

All I can say is, "Dayum!"

Of course there are a few other factors involved like TX's struggles, but still. :shock:

 

[Southern Bama]

People watch the big games....SEC has the big games. One could argue that each conference game could have influence on the national championship.

So far in the 2013 season, 52.7M people have watched A&M games. 15.2M have watched Texas. Anyone still curious why #TAMU moved to the #SEC?

I think a great deal of those that watched A&M came from the BAMA game alone.

Roughly a quarter...

Roughly a quarter...

I am assuming they were televised at least 10 times as well. Pretty strong pull for the BAMA game. CBS really dropped the ball with the lack of Missouri broadcasts and showed some real stinker of games. I thought that's why we wanted to get into the Kansas City and St. Louis markets with Mizzou being in the SEC? It will be interesting to see what kind of market share this SEC Championship game gets in the Midwest. It could be enough to make up for Alabama not being there. I'm kind of curious....

I'll try to remember to grab those numbers next Monday or Tuesday.

FWIW, the SECCG game last season with Bama vs UGA did grab a bigger audience than the Bama vs A&M game this year...but not by much.

I'm curious what kind of draw this years game is going to pull.

The Manziel factor contributed as well. What would those numbers have been if he played for Texas?
