Columbus was the highest rated local market, with a 44.9 rating. Cleveland, with a 24.4 rating, was the second-highest rated market.
This, once again, showed that FOX's focus on the noon kickoff window has been working as planned. The Buckeyes have already had five games shown on FOX kick off at noon this season, and they're not finished with the time.
Ohio State's game versus Michigan in six days figures to challenge the mark set on Saturday. That will be shown on FOX, too.
