BCS Championship Game ratings were down

phfranz4_lg.jpgOne more boring ratings post, then I'll leave you nice people alone so you can get on your game faces for the Knicks contest against whomever they're playing.

I sense things are about to turn around for them.

As you might have expected given the relative lack of pre-kickoff buzz, the ratings for the BCS Championship Game were less than inspiring.

The LSU-Ohio State tilt attracted 14.4 percent of households on Fox, down from 17.4 in 2007 and 21.7 in '06.

Fox said the game attracted an average audience of 22.6 million. That's still a lot of people. Fox noted the 14.4 rating is better than the season average for any prime time TV show in 2007-08.

Fox's four BCS games averaged a 9.0, down 13 percent from last year.
