Celebration Bowl 1.42

That's what happens when the championship game is scheduled right in the middle of an NFL Sunday.

Last year, the FCS title game got a 1.8 rating.

Yeah, the Sunday schedule for that game threw me completely off.

This bears repeating.  The FCS Championship game is 4 decades old. The Celebration Bowl is 7 years old. That 1.8 ratings is the first it's ever been that high in over 40 years. In other words, using the Sunday date as the reason the ratings are low.  Is the equivalent of fans complaining about refs cheating after a 56pt blowout.

The Celebration Bowl TV rating -- like the FCS championship game last year -- has been helped greatly by being on ABC (free TV) and NOT placed in a time slot where it is competing against major college football games or the NFL.

And the Celebration Bowl has never been televised on ESPN, ESPN 2 or ESPNU like the FCS title game has to make a fair comparison.

That's the context you're not acknowledging. The FCS championship game would likely have had a higher rating on Saturday instead of Sunday given the network it was on.

Again, no one cares about the FCS Playoffs or FCS Championship.

Simply put, you're missing 40 years of content. The FCS Championship games have been on every time slot available over "40 YEARS." Nobody brings up time slots for the MEAC/SWAC challenge, The Orange Blossom Classic, The SHC or even the Bayou Classic when it was on Peacock.

Time slot, network, day of the week, and what other programming games are up against matters when doing an evaluation of viewership.

It only seems to matter when it involves a PWI.

Steven Gaither, you need to just put me on the payroll, bruh.

The Celebration Bowl has topped the FCS National Championship Game once again. And it wasn’t even close.

The matchup between South Dakota State and North Dakota State drew an average of 1.07 million viewers and rating of .61 on Jan. 8. Those numbers are less than half of what the Celebration Bowl matchup between North Carolina Central and Jackson State drew just a few weeks earlier, as that game pulled in a rating of 1.42 and drew an average viewership of 2.42 million on ABC.
