Texas-Wisc last night had 521,000 viewers. Kentucky-Wash had 463,000. In comparison in 2019, Wisconsin Baylor had 618,000 and the other was 569,000 We had to expect some sort of drop with them playing in the Spring with a long season that has been played over a number of months. Hard to keep an audience for that long, even when trying to crown a champion for LAST year. I would be more interested to see how VB viewership bounces back under "normal" circumstances in their regularly scheduled time frame and a December championship.

So I finally have a minute.
2021 tournament numbers are above.
2019: Final-533,000 FF-618,000 (ESPN 7:00) 569,000 (ESPN 9:42), Regional Final- 308,000 (ESPNU 6:00), 222,000 (ESPNU 8:00) 2018: Final-938,000 FF-595,000 (ESPN 7:00) 619,000 (ESPN 9:03), Regional Final- 275,000 (ESPNU 10:00), 285,000 (ESPNU 8:00) 2017: Final-1,009,000 (highest since 2013)
There's almost always a common denominator in these matches.

I think it's encouraging considering it didn't have Nebraska or Stanford. (2017/2018's numbers were absurd)
They did really well in the 18-49 demo, up 30% from 2019.

I would be interested in seeing a comp on ratings of the NCAA women’s volleyball tournament vs the women’s Basketball tournament....

The final had over 4 million (but they were also on ESPN, not ESPN2) Does ESPN/ESPN2 even matter in 2021? I'm sure ESPN puts better rating stuff on ESPN, but I don't think anybody gets one and not the other, and they're always right next to each other among the channels.
