So much for the country tuning out another all-SEC national championship football game. Alabama's win over Georgia drew a 16.7 overnight TV rating, according to an ESPN news release, and that's the second highest for a BCS or College Football Playoff game that the network has televised.
Ohio State's championship win over Oregon on Jan. 12, 2015, is the highest at 18.8.
The Auburn/Oregon game Jan. 10, 2011, ranks third at 16.1, followed by Alabama/Clemson on Jan. 11,2016, at 16.0 and Alabama/Notre Dame on Jan. 7, 2013, at 15.7.
Among local markets, Birmingham was first at 57.6, followed by Atlanta (47.8), Greenville, S.C., (31.9) and Jacksonville, Fla. (29.0).
