Final Four Ratings Highest Since 2005
CBS Sports and Turner Sports' coverage of the Final Four on Saturday earned an average fast national household rating/share of 9.0/17, the highest average for the Final Four since 2005.
The bad news: That means plenty of people saw CBS miss the final seconds of Kansas's win over Ohio State because it was showing a replay. The game had a 9.6/17 household rating/share.
Kentucky's win over Louisville, meanwhile, had an 8.4/17 rating.
The 2005 Final Four games between Illnois-Louisville and North Carolina-Michigan State averaged 10.5/19.
The high ratings for this year's games bode well for the NCAA men's basketball championship game, airing tonight at 9/8c on CBS.
