If either the SEC or B1G are looking

They make strong notice that Virginia tech’s football program is the 28th values program In FBS, while the Hoos are only the 56th valued program. UVA’s football value is similar To Maryland, who is ranked 58th. Really, if the B1G wants to secure viewership in Virginia, they should add the Hokies

The reality of the situation, VT does not have very good ratings
EmpireHokie • 07/10/22 12:37 PM ET
What is a rated game? Does that mean its big enough for Nielsen to rate it?
soflahokie • 07/12/22 03:24 PM ET
Yeah, that's not the REALITY, that's one writer's flawed interpretation...
Techsupport • 07/11/22 12:18 PM ET
I don't now why people read this crap from Staples
ScottsdaleHokie • 07/11/22 01:58 PM ET
Don't discount all the people that want to watch the heels and hoos lose **
Tuckahokie • 07/11/22 08:58 AM ET
Simplistic measure
VTfan2019 • 07/11/22 03:13 AM ET
They actually had FEWER games rated over 1M. 9 vs 15(VT)
Techsupport • 07/11/22 12:11 PM ET
Staples should have compared VT’s Top 24 games to UVA’s Top 24
Enter Sandman • 07/11/22 12:11 AM ET
eh, fortunately no ACC team is going any where till 2036.
ChrisLords • 07/10/22 11:48 PM ET
I'm not so sure that's true.

We can quibble about the validity of the football ratings, but i think

What evidence do you have to support this epiphany?

UVa football fans are like Twitter followers
Hokie1992 • 07/11/22 09:30 AM ET
Exactly. Choose your desired conclusion, and then pick the criteria
VTfan2019 • 07/11/22 03:22 AM ET
Sure. And inflation is only 8% too.**
marcbvtgm • 07/10/22 05:27 PM ET
39.7 mil > 28.8 and remember vs factors as well**
Concord Dan • 07/10/22 04:43 PM ET

Concord Dan • 07/10/22 04:41 PM ET
Yes, and also 15>9.

Here THIS is a more accurate measure
hokiepro • 07/10/22 04:31 PM ET
Did they assume zero for the games without data? AKA ACCN games?
reestuart • 07/11/22 08:02 PM ET
Those numbers are believable**
VT ChemE 1986 • 07/11/22 01:51 PM ET
WVU - #30. really?**
949hokie • 07/10/22 07:09 PM ET
That's a heck of a lot more accurate!
EDGEMAN • 07/10/22 05:10 PM ET
It does not matter what YOU believe**

It was an article on the Athletic, not my "BS" **
EmpireHokie • 07/10/22 05:12 PM ET
Don't care who wrote it because It's total BS.**

Makes much more sense.**
techer1983 • 07/10/22 04:56 PM ET
Those numbers make no sense. VT was THE team that played on Thursday Night
laphroaig • 07/10/22 03:37 PM ET
Of those two teams, which one filled their opponent's stadiums?
EDGEMAN • 07/10/22 05:11 PM ET
Lets look at who brings in fewer viewers than the Hokies

You are looking at the numbers wrong- any football fan will also tell you

hokiepro • 07/10/22 04:28 PM ET
This is a dumb comparison. We had MORE games rated BECAUSE
hokiepro • 07/10/22 02:58 PM ET
The Hoos drew more? Not likely.
EDGEMAN • 07/10/22 02:42 PM ET
Totally agree - a 10 year old for football fan can confirm***
sacramento hokie • 07/10/22 03:12 PM ET
Did they look at the stadium when they played games?**
scoop76cs • 07/10/22 01:37 PM ET
Zero way hoos have more viewers in rated games. I don’t believe this **
