It makes me realize how far we've fallen during the Strollo era.

FCS Title games with NDSU 1.7 million
ESPN Gameday 1.1 million

Very interesting article. NDSU had better ESPN GameDay ratings than most BCS schools.

However, the ratings still look better for ESPN GameDay than the FCS Championship.

Game Day will always be higher. The games are regional. Game Day is national. There is no alternative game day, but there are alternative college football games. The Buckeyes championship game averaged 38.8 million and had peak of over 50 million viewers ...a rating of over 21.
We are what we are. The average person does not even know ESPN2 exists. Even the D II & III title games get ESPN. I have complained about this for years. ESPN puts little effort into it. Let's go to Fox.
