Another Ratings Increase For The SEC on CBS

While Saturday’s game between Ole Miss and LSU didn’t have the appeal of Alabama-LSU or Texas A&M-Alabama for CBS the two previous weeks, it still did better from the equivalent game from the year before.

CBS says a barnburner that saw LSU come from behind and defeat Mississippi, 41-35 garnered an overnight rating of 2.4 with a 5 share, up 50% from last year’s Mississippi State-LSU game.

“SEC ON CBS” RATINGS DON’T MISS WITH LSU WIN OVER OLE MISS

CBS Sports’ coverage of the SEC ON CBS on Saturday, Nov. 17, which saw No. 7-ranked LSU defeat Ole Miss, 41-35, earned an average overnight household rating/share of 2.4/5, up 50% from last season’s 1.6/3 (Mississippi St.-No. 7 LSU).

And one more press release post and we’re done until the Football Night in America quotage later tonight.
