Even though the Northwestern Wildcats couldn't pull off the win against the Michigan Wolverines, it was still one of the most-watched games on Saturday. 

ESPN and ABC put up some crazy numbers with the games they broadcasted over the weekend, as the Northwestern-Michigan game came in at No. 5 with 3.76 million viewers. 

The game being at historic Wrigley Field definitely helped, but it's great to see the Wildcats get some attention. 

ESPN and ABC aired the four most-watched college football games over the weekend: 1️⃣ Oklahoma-Alabama: 10.5M (ABC) 2️⃣ Texas-Georgia: 10.4M (ABC) 3️⃣ South Carolina–Texas A&M: 4.3M (ESPN) 4️⃣ Notre Dame–Pitt: 4M (ABC) 5️⃣ Michigan-Northwestern: 3.76M (Fox)
