I think had the game not been so lopsided in undefeated Notre Dame’s favour, we might have seen a higher Nielsen today for the game.
After 17 nights, NBC still leads the pack in A18-49s for the November Sweep:
November Sweep: 17 Nights Live + Same Day Nightly Averages
Rank. Web A18-49s P2+s HHs
1. NBC 2.76 7,681,000 4.7
2. CBS 2.38 10,248,000 6.5
3. ABC 2.22 7,956,000 5.1
4. FOX 2.14 6,289,000 3.8
5. UNI 1.45 3,602,000 1.9
6. CW 0.63 1,662,000 1.1
7. ION 0.30 1,054,000 0.7
NBC looks set to win its sixth week of the seven-week-old 2012-13 season with an expected 3.3 A18-49. Here’s how I estimate Week 7 to finish up:
Week 7: Forecast Weekly Average of Live + Same Day Nightly Averages
Rank. Web A18-49s P2+s
1. NBC 3.3 9.1m
2. ABC 2.3 8.1m
3. FOX 2.2 5.8m

5. UNI 1.5 3.7m
6. CW 0.7 1.7m (0.70 A18-34 0.84 W18-34 0.55 M18-34)
7. ION 0.3 1.1m
ABC had high hopes for a grand Nielsen rating this week for ‘Saturday Night College Football’, but Notre Dame’s early and sustained dominance supressed the eventual size of the audience.

I agree the lopsided route kept these numbers from adding 5 million extra viewers.
I don’t know what ABC was thinking showing Boston College in prime time there was plenty of games on the schedule that they could’ve aired and gotten bigger numbers out of it.
