College football imperialism


Recommended Posts

You don't want to play a bunch of teams coming off a loss, that's what this looks like. You want to be someone's first loss, or first loss in a while. 

 

Let's say we lose to Ohio State - they control Nebraska now. 

 

Our next game is a road game, at Purdue. We beat Purdue - do we get control over Nebraska again, or does Ohio State keep that?

Ohio State would keep it.  We'd only get what Purdue had - if any.

That's not true unless tOSU was our first loss. Say we lose to Oregon (god forbid), anybody who beats Nebraska after that gets jack squat for it unless we beat an unbeaten in the interim. This map will be interesting only because it will be so meaningless and random.

Observations:

  • Georgia has an interesting dispersion
  • Clemson's area seems lacking
  • UCF is well ahead of DONU
  • How does Miami/Florida State will not affect the state of Florida?
  • Maryland has more to lose than tOSU this weekend
  • Including Alaska really skews the area standings

On the reddit thread, somebody mentioned that FIU is actually closer than Miami for all counties other than Dade so Miami basically started with nothing.

So let me understand this Minnesota has more territory then Wisconsin, yet Wisconsin has beat Minnesota now 13 years in a row. Something doesn't sound right considering that Wisconsin is the 4th most Winning team in all of FBS

I mean it has nothing to do with football history, only this current season to date. I also don't see Minnesota on the most recent one.
