    Well that and the fact that viewership was split between the two cards.

      unless people were really that interested in FSU-Duke, which i wasnt, or the mountain west championship
      People probably wanted to see the Freshman kill Duke and winn the ACC title.

      Also... Damn

      If we really want to add to boxing's woes: 18 South Park reruns on Saturday drew higher ratings than boxing.

        Boxing full of excuses aren't they? Now they're blaming Southpark too?

          silly to have 2 cards within 2 hoours of each other on an evening when casual fans are either watching college football or out shopping.

              First off, competing cards between HBO and Showtime.

              Secondly, you can't compare ratings from premium networks, to regular networks and cable tv. The south park comparison is a joke.

                Plus you had fans waiting to see if it was going to be Auburn or Ohio St.

                  MSU really came a long this year. Barely scoring points to just piling them on

                    I enjoyed all the fights. Like it or not there has been a place for all styles in boxing for a hundred years.

                      And to think a 4 point loss to Notre Dame was the difference between the BCS title game and the Rose Bowl.

                      Doesn't suck as bad being a Alabama fan though.
