If there was any doubt the ACC is the most popular basketball conference going, the past 2 weeks only confirmed the ACC is still #1 in popularity.
The ACC Tournament Championship between North Carolina and Virginia (March 10, 8:30 p.m.) delivered a Nielsen reported audience of 3,435,000 viewers, the most-watched game of champ week across any network.
The Big 12 Championship between West Virginia and Kansas (March 10, 6 p.m.) delivered a Nielsen reported audience of 2,852,000 viewers,
Selection Sunday featured the SEC Championship between Kentucky and Tennessee (March 11, 1 p.m.), which averaged 2,553,000 viewers

The Big 10 couldn’t have been too thrilled about the regular season game between Duke and UNC getting higher ratings the same weekend of the Big 10 Title Game too.
I tried to find the Pac 12 Championship game game ratings but so far I haven’t been able to. It may come out later this week, but it’s unlikely it’s viewership was anywhere near the ACC’s as in the previous 10 years the Pac 12 never cleared 3 Million viewers.
