Alabama is the largest national draw, but both Clemson and Oklahoma are much bigger draws than MSU.

According to this , MSU has appeared in 3 of the top 8 most watched games this season (tOSU, Oregon, Michigan), including the #1 spot for the tOSU game, so somebody out there must be watching.

I don't have a horse in this race, but that seemed like a whole team of taunters around the ball carrier after the play.

incorrect, I believe Alabama/Florida drew a 7.8 rating, and is the highest currently for the year

Two of those games were against HUGE national draws.

That's a mean thing to say about Michigan.

MSU/Bama were bigger viewership draws this season than Clemson/Oklahoma, seems like an easy scheduling choice for ESPN. We can all agree that NYE is awful for playoff games though.

Pretty much. Hilarious that this is how it works out because this stupid network values THE 155TH ANNUAL ROSE BOWL GAME Y'ALL more.

Best I can tell:
Bama lead 5 weeks in TV ratings (Florida, LSU, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Wisconsin)
MSUn lead 3 weeks (OSUn, Michigan, Oregon)
Oklahoma lead 2 weeks (Texas, Baylor)
Clemson lead 1 week (Notre Dame)

Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.
After the ACC champ game... you'd think Dabo would never let his guy do that again.

Legit surprised by that... but then again... probably why he did it.

Rockmill Brewery right off 33 when heading towards lancaster. Place is super cool to visit, they get their water right off the hocking river that runs through on site. They had their water tested and its close to those form Belgium so they brew almost only belgium beers. A few stores around here sell their stuff but its for sure worth going to visit the brewery itself.

This sounds like a place I'll need to visit
