Ratings Analysis: The "Michigan vs. Ohio State" college football game (0.67) topped the night and led NBC to a clear victory in the key demo. In the 11:30 p.m. time slot, host Timothée Chalamet could not stop Saturday Night Live (0.60, -0.18) from sinking to a new season low. ABC's "Texas v. TCU" game (0.57) and Fox's "West Virginia v. Oklahoma" (0.52) both put up solid numbers but could not beat the peacock network. CBS went with "NWSL Soccer" (0.25) and a rerun of Bob Hearts Abishola (0.10). The CW's showing of 1997 film Men in Black (0.08) was well above last week's Cowboys & Aliens (0.03).
