Michigan-Ohio St. pulls in biggest TV audience in 13 years
BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) -- Top-ranked Ohio State's victory over No. 2 Michigan
drew the biggest television audience for any regular-season game in 13 years.
ABC's broadcast pulled in a 13.4 rating, which translates to 14.96 million
households and 21.77 million viewers. That's the biggest audience and rating
for a regular-season college football network telecast since Florida State
