Numbers just came out... 6th most watched game this last weekend...
Ore-Ore St (FOX) 2.8M
That's the good news. The bad news, obviously, is what people watched.

Well, yeah, those 2.8 million viewers were worth around $10 million dollars to Fox. We aren't going to get the sort of media deal we all want just playing games that get 500k or even 1m viewers every week - we need some big games that get big numbers. And they need to be HOME games.

I get it .....just sucks to get smoked at home in front of a national audience. |

We better stop playing a game that earned us at least $10M. We got the media from this game. It was our home game. One game earned us more than we make in a full year selling tickets for all sports at OSU. |

One game earned us more than we make in a full year selling tickets for all sports at OSU. Pretty hyped game. First non conf CW. I wonder if, as time goes on, and the talent gap continues to increase, will the game still be hyped? Will we fill Reser? Will anyone other than duck fans even care? In the past it always meant something......it quickly becomes a non conf body bag game. Will casual college fans care? I doubt it. I spose if we get the home game, and the spoils, it'll still make sense, monetarily......at what point will they make us only go to autzen? Maybe they won't because it's 40 minutes up the road for them? So they can jump on the bus, smoke us by 40, and it saves them travel expenses? They keep us on the hook with $$$.....it's like an abused wife staying with her abuser for financial reasons. |

I dream of a world where hole and us are playing for completely different trophies. A world where we don't need the media money from playing them......or maybe just where it's not an option.
Maybe some day it will be completely separate. And we can have a regional conference and not worry so goddamn much about tv markets!

Not exactly. That's an estimate of what Fox would have paid us, based on what other outlets are paying other conferences on a per-viewer basis.

I still don’t believe that is correct either, and Atown said: a game that earned us at least $10M. |

And then, you are basically playing with cardboard pads and helmets that are painted on, kicking a ball that was at one point really a pig. Money keeps the lights on and keeps all of the other sports going. And there just is no real money without TV, unless the boosters just start dumping millions more into the program every single year. |
