ABC was the dominant No. 1 network on Saturday night, beating runner-up Fox with its college football coverage by 32 percent in viewership and 31 percent among adults 18-49. Airing from 8:07-11:55pm, Iowa’s 14-13 upset of Michigan on “Saturday Night Football” was the evening’s #1 program in total viewers and adults 18-49 and rose over the prior week’s “SNF” game by 36 percent in adults 18-49 to deliver its highest-rated telecast in four weeks – since 10/15/16.

Despite rating behind ABC, Fox saw significant increases with its college football coverage. Washington’s upset loss to USC delivered a 2.5 U.S. household rating, 4.301 million viewers and a 1.3 rating in adults 18-49 — up +0.8 and +1.2 in household rating, up +54 percent and +91 percent in total viewers and up +0.5 and +0.7 in adults 18-49 rating from its year-ago (Oregon-Stanford 11/12/15: 1.7 HH, 2.795 million viewers, 0.8 adults 18-49) and 2-years-ago games (Kansas State-TCU 11/08/15: 1.3 HH, 2.248 million viewers, 0.6 adults 18-49), respectively.
