They really should have made last Saturday’s Michigan vs. Michigan State game a prime time game, especially judging by the ratings.
According to Show Buzz Daily, the big game averaged more than 9.2 million viewers on FOX, crowning it the most-watched college football game of the 2021 season so far.
It was a really tight game, with Michigan State squeaking out a win against Michigan, 37-33. I was on the edge of my seat for the entire game!
