On Selection Sunday, here are ratings for the second half of the college basketball regular season. Click here to jump to the chart.
While ratings remained fairly low for most games, ESPN and CBS pulled in strong numbers for some high-profile matchups during the second half of the season. The four highest rated games of the season took place since January 21 — Michigan/Indiana on ESPN February 2 (2.5), Indiana/Michigan State on ESPN February 19 (2.3), Duke/Miami on ESPN March 2 (2.2), and the Indiana/Michigan rematch last Sunday (2.1).
For the season, six of the ten-highest rated games were Big Ten conference matchups, and seven of the top-ten involved a Big Ten team. Of the 678* games on CBS, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU and NBC Sports Network this season (Nov. 9 to Mar. 10), only six had a rating of 2.0 or higher.
A whopping 606 of the 678 games had less than a 1.0 rating. That includes 376 games that had between a 0.1 and 0.4, and an incredible 127 games that had a 0.0. Of note, every single game that had a 0.0 rating aired on ESPNU or NBC Sports Network.
Overall, college basketball games averaged 508,000 viewers on ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU during the regular season. ESPN averaged 1.4 million for 135 games, up slightly from last year, and the network’s most-viewed college basketball season ever. Regular season averages were not available for CBS or NBC Sports Network.
