The television ratings for Tuesday’s “First Four” games are out and both games absolutely crushed it.
The gross average viewership totaled 3.4 million viewers, which is up 36% from 2019.
In fact, the Indiana-Wyoming game was the most-watched first four Tuesday game of all-time. It averaged 2.2 million viewers, which is up 47% compared to the 2019 window.
