Spotted Ratings, Saturday 3/24/12 (FINALS)

WHAT MATTERS:

• CBS completely overwhelmed the other three sub-1.0 networks with most of the Ohio State/Syracuse basketball game. Unlike most games this week, it was actually up slightly vs. the year-ago game, and it was the biggest CBS primetime game thus far in this tourney.

• NBC's encore of USA Network drama Fairly Legal tied as NBC's weakest telecast of the season in the demo, and lead-out The Firm suffered.
