Listen to “Full Ep: College Football Scores in Early Ratings and NFL is Back! 9 7 21” on Spreaker.On a brand new edition of the show, host T.J. Rives returns with the owner/operator of SportsMediaWatch.com, Jon Lewis to cover mostly the return of FOOTBALL to our screens.
T.J. and Jon go over the ratings successes in primetime for Fox last Thursday and ESPN/ABC on Saturday and Sunday nights. Is this a sign that college football ratings are going to soar this year or is Jon still skeptical that it will keep up?
The guys also discuss the pre game shows “College Gameday” and it’s new gaining audience counterpart, “Big Noon Pregame” on Fox Sports. Jon goes over what he likes and dislikes about both.
Then, the attention turns to the start of the 2021 NFL season. And, it begins with the new traditional Thursday night home game for the Super Bowl champs, the Bucs hosting the Cowboys. Will this be a ratings bonanza for NBC? What about legendary p x p man, Al Michaels? Is it his last go around for the network, which has the Super Bowl in L.A. in February?
T.J. and Jon wrap it up with another “Love it or Leave it”, including Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly’s controversial post-game comment Sunday night about his own team and whether Jon hates alternate jerseys and uniforms or not?
