Also on TNT: Ohio State-VCU contest averaged 2.906 million and a 1.1 adults 18-49 rating and Wofford vs Arkansas averaged 2.030 million viewers and a 0.9 adults 18-49 rating.

Note to readers using mobile phones: on most phones the tables are probably easier to read/scroll through if you tilt your phone to landscape orientation.
Update: somehow we managed to omit the Texas Southern vs Arizona game from the table below. It averaged 501,000 viewers and a 0.2 adults 18-49 rating from 2pm-4:29pm.
