Syracuse Crushes Rutgers Again

[sutomcat]

Pinstripe Bowl 2012 rating 3.9
Pinstripe Bowl 2013 rating 3.3

Of course, RU was hampered because their opponent was Notre Dame instead of West Virginia...

Game, set, match Syracuse.

Fans thought they were playing in the Rose Bowl and had their TV's set to the wrong channel.

Syracuse > Rutgers

As always...

Anyone have the ratings for the Texas Bowl?

Anyone have the ratings for the Texas Bowl?

Only a 1.0 but it had the largest viewership numbers of any cable program that night

Great post!

It really is unfair to compare.

How could anyone figure that ND would attract the kind of mass audience that WVU attracts.

I guess you have to call Rutgers "North Jersey's College Team"

I know this post is focused on rutgers a bit but is anyone else shocked because ND was playing. Am I missing something? I don't doubt TC but I find this stat unbelievable.

The 1.0 apears to be for all adults 18-49. In that same category, the Rutgers vs ND Pinstripe Bowl was a 0.9.

Why the disrespect to Montclair State? I'd rather my kids go there if they had to go to college in NJ.

That's not really close. Just imagine if Rutgers played West Virginia!

How is that possible, with ND?

Looks like 3.993 million viewers according to the link, that is pretty huge.

Hey B1G, feeling bad yet?

 

[baggerbob]

When some of the existing networks, say half your conference is now unwatchable, so we're taking your channel off basic, the Big 10 will look like fools.

That is about a 3.8 HH rating for our game. Very impressive! Yes our game started at 6P and RU/ND started a bit past noon but still...

Perhaps TV execs have realized that Snooki State is a black hole that actually sucks viewership away from college football inversely proportional to the opponent.

 

[Cusejuicy]

The truth is Rutgers is just a closet junior college.

That's easy, ALL the Rutgers fans were at the game...oh wait

 

[OrangeMojo]

that's crazy - I imagined that the entire metro area shut down, a la Green Bay, WI when there's a Packers game going on - and that all New Yorkers unable to secure a ticket to the game were glued to their television sets

I guess all new yorkers just hate ND so much that they refused to watch their favorite local team - only logical explanation

They were busy watching SU stick it to Villanova.

WRONG -they know absolutely nothing about hoops at joisey state

 

[KaiserUEO]

they did get 47k to push the turnstiles.

we need about a 3-4 year breather from there. hopefully it wont even be an option as we outplayed its level.

if not, ill still go, but...
