The women’s game between LSU and South Carolina got more viewers than the Celtics-Heat game on TNT.

In the last few decades, college basketball for women has become more popular. On Thursday night, the sport reached a new high point.

CNN showed a live episode of College GameDay from Baton Rouge before the No. 9 LSU vs. No. 1 South Carolina game, which was the biggest national sports event of the night.

According to Sports Media Watch, 1.56 million people watched South Carolina’s 76–70 win over LSU on average.

This was more than the NBA game between the Boston Celtics as well as Miami Heat on TNT at the same time, which only had 1.38 million viewers on average.

The rivalry among South Carolina as well as LSU has quickly become a mainstay in women’s college basketball. The last two national champions have played each other.

The Celtics and Heat played each other again because they had met in the last two Eastern Conference finals.

Boston beat Miami 143–110, but it is still interesting that LSU and South Carolina beat a battle between two well-known NBA teams.

The game was the second most-watched women’s college basketball single-season game since 2010. The first game, Ohio State’s 100-92 overtime win over No. 5 Iowa on Sunday, caught the most attention.

This season, South Carolina and LSU will not play each other again. However, in February, the Gamecocks will play No. 8 UConn in a very important game.

Both the Gamecocks and the Tigers are 18–0 so far this season, putting them back in the running for the national championship.

A report from Sports Media Watch, 1.56 million people watched South Carolina’s thrilling come-from-behind win over LSU. It was the most-watched game on Thursday night.

On the other hand, 1.38 million people watched the Celtics’ 143–110 win over the Heat on average.

Last week’s game between Iowa and Ohio State was the most-watched women’s basketball match of the season.

This game involving the Gamecocks and the Tigers was the second most watched. Over 1.86 million people watched that NBC game, making it the most-watched women’s regular season game since 2010.

All week, people were getting more and more excited about the LSU vs. South Carolina game. The Pete Maravich Sports Center was packed with people before the game, and College GameDay was there to cover the top-10 matchup.

The amount of noise made by fans was praised by South Carolina football coach Dawn Staley shortly after the game. From what I can tell, they’re beginning to enjoy it. There is more than one player and program. It has grown.

Staley said, “I think the people who make decisions about our game are being much more deliberate about showing off our game.”

In the same breath, I believe they planned not to show off our game years ago. For the time being, though, I think they see a chance to make money.
