    Nielsen rating of the super bowl?

    Anyone know what it was and where I can get an official source for the rating?

    Down 7% of last year's Super Bowl. 103.4 million people average. Under cashed.

    7% less than 111,300,000 in 2017.


    Best of luck.

    I guess what I need is the Nielsen rating, not number of viewers. Had a book grade my under 45.5 rating as a loss.

    Fairly certain the Nielsen rating isn't released until later in the week. Only saw props based on average total # of viewers. Nielsen ratings can be biased...would never bet on that.

    Here is one article that says "in metered market households, Sunday’s game on NBC drew a 47.4 rating:"

    What metered means to what the books use, I have no clue.

    Best of luck.

    A few sites had Nielsen ratings. How can they be biased though? It's a solid number isn't it?

    Less than 20,000 households speak for over 320 million people in the U.S. It's an outdated method of polling.

    Read in an article that the official number comes out on Tuesday, but I just can't seem to find it online

    Those props were a bettors delight. Going for 2 point conversion, dog winning outright, more than 2.5 players throwing a pass, missed xtra point, 1st penalty on Phil, over in game, over every quarter, over every quarter, So many more and gamblers finally won
