ESPN announced that an average of 6.658 million viewers tuned into Penn State football’s victory over Michigan on Saturday night.

The Nittany Lions’ 28-21 triumph over Jim Harbaugh’s program was the most-watched game of the week, and it narrowly beat No. 1 Alabama’s 35-13 victory over Tennessee to earn that distinction. It’s currently the sixth-most watched game of the 2019 season so far.

Interestingly, the highest-rated local market for Penn State’s victory was in Columbus. The game got a 16.5 local rating in the city where Ohio State is located, and the second-highest rating of 16.2 came from Detroit. Pittsburgh checked in as the third-highest with a 10.9 rating, and Dayton, Ohio and Philadelphia rounded out the top five with local ratings of 10.7 and 10.4, respectively.

ESPN got a six percent increase of viewership from last season’s Saturday Night Football match-up during week eight of the season. Approximately 6.4 million fans tuned in to watch Purdue blow the doors off then-No. 3 Ohio State 49-20 in West Lafayette last year.

Saturday’s White Out was the second consecutive Penn State game to be broadcast on ABC. The team’s 17-12 victory over then-No. 17 Iowa aired on the network, and the Nittany Lions will be featured on ABC for the third consecutive week against Michigan State. Kickoff is currently slated for 3:30 p.m. at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing.
