    CBS Makes Massive Announcement After USC-Michigan Game

    By Cole Sullivan,

    In a classic Big Ten showdown on Saturday, the current ranked No. 12 Michigan Wolverines edged out the No. 13 USC Trojans with a game-winning drive that emphasized their commitment to the run game.

    The Wolverines' rushing attack was key to their success, led by Kalel Mullings , who rushed 17 times for 159 yards and two touchdowns, along with Donovan Edwards , who added 14 carries for 74 yards and one touchdown. Michigan quarterback Alex Orji had a modest performance, completing just seven passes for 32 yards throughout the game.

    However, despite it being an old-fashioned style of football, fans tuned and the CBS Sports PR made a massive announcement on Tuesday regarding the showdown.

    The CBS Sports' presentation of USC-Michigan at 3:30 PM ET was the most-watched game of the week across any network with a total of 6.321 million viewers.

    The matchup drew over 10 million views, making the Wolverines' victory the most-watched Week 4 game on CBS in ten years—up 37% compared to last season’s highest-rated game between Ole Miss and Alabama .

    So funny to listen to the Bama and OSU whiners still. They kicked both your asses last year and when OSU loses their only game this year to Michigan we can all smile
