LSU hosted Auburn on Saturday night in prime time on national television on ESPN, but the Tigers were competing with several other high profile matchups, namely Miami-North Carolina and USC–Notre Dame, in the night block.
In spite of that, the SEC West matchup was ultimately one of the 10 most-viewed games over the weekend, coming in at No. 10 with 2.16 million viewers, according to Sports Media Watch.
The Tigers have had a lot of eyes on them this season with several prime-time games including the season-opener against Florida State, which aired on ABC.
LSU’s Week 8 matchup isn’t likely to draw quite as much attention as the team hosts Army in a non-conference game that will air at 6:30 p.m. CT on the SEC Network.
