    Doesn't the BIG10 have much better TV deals?

    Kentucky was likely at #9 because of who they were playing not because of Kentucky.

    We played six of the teams ahead of us. How do we have less viewership overall? Do they not take into consideration who the teams are playing?

    Could it be that those infrequent times that we weren't playing a top 20 team that only us diehard Gators were watching? Idk, the universe is an absurd mystery to me....

    Still, the numbers of watching from the 7 or more ranked teams would be very large.
