The second most-watched game was Georgia Tech beating Florida State, which had north of 3.5 million viewers.

You know fans are desperate for college football action when a game that was expected to be a blowout draws more than four million viewers.

Duke, while a national basketball brand, isn’t a football school, and the Fighting Irish were expected to roll them.

While that didn’t happen, it was a great game that a lot of people tuned in for.

If these are already the ratings, you can bet the ratings for the SEC are going to be through the roof once their games start September 26.

They’re going to be gigantic if Notre Dame’s win over Duke is an indication of things to come.
