Note this is for the weekend of the TCU game. The guy who posts these numbers each week didn't post the CFB numbers last week and after I emailed him a request he added it in his Sunday blog for me. Hope to see Week 10 out later today...
Rating Network Week Away Home

Note VA vs Miami was against WS Game 6 and BYU vs TCU was against WS Game 7...
I did post previously that the early number for BYU vs TCU was a .4. I was hesitant to use that number as an absolute because the site was specifically only reporting 18-49 males. I believe the guy that reports the ones I use is for all ages/genders. And I wanted his number to keep consistency...

Below are the number of times each team has appeared nationally on a channel that has enough distribution and a high enough event rating that Nielsen tracks/reports on it. (Note so far .3 is the lowest that they have bothered to report on major networks - other networks like ESPNU, BYU-TV, CBSCS, FSN, BTN, & mtn are not considered to have enough distribution to track/report)
