Before last week, only one show in FS1 history had attracted over a million viewers, or had even managed to better that one show’s prelim card. Now there are four. Sure, one of the four was the truck series race from Talladega, but the other was a fairly pedestrian matchup between Washington State and Oregon that aired late at night on the East Coast and outdrew the UFC prelim card it had as a lead-in. Sure, it threatened an upset, but I get the distinct feeling Boise State-Washington could have done better if it happened now, after last week’s Oregon-Washington game. More to the point, the other college football game FS1 aired this week became the fourth most watched college football game in FS1 history, topping every game not mentioned in this paragraph. That game? Texas Tech, admittedly unbeaten and ranked, against then-3-3 West Virginia.
So, did Oregon-Washington also have spillover effects to FS1’s studio shows? The table below compares the daily studio shows I track last week and this week, as well as a few other weekly shows. I tried to filter out the effects of a NASCAR lead-in, which is why Fox NFL Kickoff isn’t on the list. The results? Most studio shows actually went down this week. Monday’s 1 AM Fox Sports Live episode saw a huge jump which could indicate at least some people tuned in after Monday Night Football, but that and the following 2 AM episode were the only two editions to top 100,000 viewers that didn’t have college football or The Ultimate Fighter as a lead-in. 71,000 people saw FSL last Sunday at 11 PM, a big jump from 23,000 the week before, but that fell to 55,000 this week, though 12:30 went up from 50,000 to 60,000 (and 18,000 the week before). It seems clear to me that, two months in, the panel is still a big turn-off.
