Introducing Playfly Insights’ first-ever College Football Audience Power Rankings, a new predictive model showing why the teams ranked highest on the field are not always the teams that win the biggest audiences.
Some highlights from the model:
🏈 Nebraska continues to prove the power of a loyal fan base, ranking among the 25 most-watched programs in each of the past five seasons despite never appearing in the preseason Top 25 during that span.
🤘 Texas is projected to leap Georgia and Alabama in audience power for the first time since joining the SEC, fueled by Arch Manning, Cam Coleman and a schedule featuring seven preseason Top 25 opponents.
🐯 Clemson is another team where audience demand may outpace the polls. Despite missing the preseason Top 25, the Tigers’ historically strong viewership, passionate fan base and marquee opener against Playfly partner LSU have them projected at No. 22.
The rankings give marketers and rights holders a different way to evaluate college football: not simply by who is expected to win, but by who consistently commands attention.
Playfly Sports is helping unlock new revenue opportunities in college athletics.
This week, we announced a first-of-its-kind Group of Six jersey patch partnership between @TroyAthletics and Troy Bank & Trust.
Brokered by @TroySportsProp, the four-year agreement will put Troy Bank & Trust on the uniforms of all 16 Troy Athletics programs and on coaches’ in-game apparel beginning with the 2026-27 season.
The partnership builds on Playfly’s growing work around jersey patch inventory, following our first-ever collegiate jersey patch agreement between LSU Athletics and Woodside Energy earlier this year.
As the college sports landscape evolves, we’re focused on creating high-value commercial opportunities that pair the right inventory with brands that have an authentic connection to their communities.

A new way to connect better sleep with some of the most passionate fans in sports.
@MWarehouseLLC and Playfly Sports are teaming up on a multiyear partnership spanning both college and professional sports, bringing the Mattress Warehouse brand closer to fans in key markets across its growing footprint.
Together, we’re building a localized strategy that includes professional baseball media in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, as well as new partnerships with the University of Maryland and UCF, where Mattress Warehouse will serve as the Official Mattress Retailer.
By bringing college and pro sports together within one connected strategy, we can meet fans across the teams, schools and communities they care about most — while helping Mattress Warehouse introduce more consumers to its mission of improving lives through better quality sleep.
The partnership will also use custom research from Vision Insights to measure impact and help inform the strategy along the way.
Here’s to reaching new fans, strengthening local connections and helping more people get a better night’s sleep.
