What was the most-watched conference championship game of the weekend?
No, it wasn’t Washington-Colorado in the Pac-12 title game or even Penn State-Wisconsin in an important Big 12 title game.
It was Alabama-Florida in the SEC Championship Game, which checked in with the second-highest ratings of the 2016 season:
#SECChamp25 is highest-rated 2016 conference champ game w/ MM rtg/shr of 7.0/15; peaks w/8.3/18 (5-5:30 PM) & ties as 2nd highest game STD

The game lacked some of the drama of other title games, but No. 1 Alabama put on a show and proved it is the top team in college football this season.
It’s likely the Crimson Tide will appear in the Peach Bowl on Dec. 31.
