Around SBN: The Most Dangerous Division in Sports

The Tostitos BCS National Championship Game between Auburn and Oregon attracted the top overnight metered cable television rating ever....The game drew a 67.0 rating in Birmingham, Ala., and a 37.5 in Portland, Ore. -- the home markets of the two teams.

ESPN. For those of you who don't follow television ratings as closely as I do, last night's BCS Championship game was the highest rated cable program ever and was watched by 67 percent of Birmingham households. By contrast, last year's Championship Game was watched by 67.4 percent of Birmingham households.

Isn't 67.4

higher than 67.0. Or am I missing something?

I was pointing out two separate things.

This year’s game was the most watched cable program of all time.

Both this year’s and last year’s games were watched by two-thirds of Birmingham households, though last year’s by a few more.

Two separate ideas.

I get what you are saying.

And, as I have pointed out Auburn got a tremendous amount of nationwide publicity last night as the new Miami.

Don’t think their thugish actions were accidents. They know the market to whom they are playing.

If Auburn was in New Mexico and we never played them I would still hate them and their dumb coach and their cheating players.
