Shocker: television ratings for bowls dropped this year


Whether you’re for a college football playoff, or against one, you’d be hard-pressed to find a lot of people who didn’t think there were too many bowl games this year.
And a lot of them weren’t very good.
So, it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise when 23 of the 35 bowls this postseason had lower television ratings from the previous year. Included in those 23 were
Rose Bowl and the BCS National Championship, although those two still yielded the highest ratings. Overall, bowl television ratings were down nine percent this year.
