Maybe there are a few people out there who really are sick of Clemson playing Alabama in the College Football Playoff. Or people went to bed early knowing Clemson had the game in the bag.

The Tigers’ 44-16 win over Alabama on Monday night got a 14.6 television rating for ESPN’s multiple networks broadcasting the game. As noted by Austin Karp of the Sports Business Journal, it’s the lowest rating for a national title game since Alabama had a rematch with LSU in January of 2012 and over two points off the rating that Alabama’s last-second win over Georgia in 2018 got.
