The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party drew the most viewers of any Week 9 college football game last Saturday.
Georgia torched the Gators despite a fast Florida start, winning 43-20. And remember, that was without Brock Bowers on the field in Jacksonville.
The game was the most-viewed game of the week by a considerable margin, coming in at 5.95 million total viewers. 2nd place was Ohio State-Wisconsin with 4.87 million viewers.
The next closest SEC matchup was Tennessee’s close win over Kentucky, which drew 2.51 million viewers.

Compared to past weeks, Georgia-Florida was actually considerably down in ratings. Tennessee-Alabama and Ohio State-Penn State both drew over 8 million viewers in Week 8.
There are some more huge games on the schedule for this week, though. Alabama and LSU should receive plenty of viewers, as should Mizzou-Georgia earlier in the day.
Outside of the SEC, USC and Washington should draw a lot of viewers in the primetime slot.
