CFP viewership topped by Saturday NFL games
Briefly

The NFL games outperformed the college football playoff games in viewership, with the Texans-Chiefs and Steelers-Ravens games averaging 15.5 million and 15.4 million viewers respectively, showcasing the NFL's ongoing dominance in viewership.
The playoff game between SMU and Penn State averaged 6.4 million viewers on TNT networks, indicating that while college football has made strides, it still has a long way to reach NFL viewership numbers.
ESPN and ABC's college football games attracted impressive numbers, but even the highest-rated college games couldn't surpass the NFL's audience, reflecting a clear preference for professional over collegiate sports.
Overall, the average of 10.6 million viewers for the college playoff weekend highlights the growing interest in the format, yet it remains overshadowed by the NFL, which continues to capture larger audiences.
