Connecticut Huskies’ 76-59 victory against San Diego State Aztecs was watched by 14.69 million on CBS. They beat the record of Villanova’s win against Michigan on TBS in 2018 when more than 1 million people watched – 15.99 to be correct.<\/p>\n
If we look for the previous lowest-viewed final on CBS, we need to go back to 2004 when UConn played against and won again against Georgia Tech, and 17.09 million watched it live.<\/p>\n
The positive news is that the final was the most viewed program on TV on Monday.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, the women’s NCAA final was the highest watched on Sunday when LSU lifted the trophy against Iowa 102-85. Almost 10 million people watched it on ABC and ESPN2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
