A high-scoring near-upset of the nation’s #2 team was not enough to boost college football on FOX.
The TCU/Kansas State college football game drew a 1.8 overnight rating on FOX Saturday night, down a tick from Arizona State/USC last year (1.9) but up 39% from TCU/Oklahoma in 2013 (1.3).
The Horned Frogs’ win had the weekend’s lowest college football overnight on broadcast, finishing a tick below NBC’s Navy/Notre Dame game (1.9). Head-to-head, it trailed Miami/Florida State on ABC (2.7) and Arkansas/Alabama on ESPN (2.5).
So far this season, FOX has aired the lowest rated game on broadcast in five of six weeks.
