Unless Fresno St beats Minnesota and UCLA beats Fresno St, our ability to gain ground outside of Nebraska in the first half of the season looks pretty limited. ASU probably won't have any territory when we play them either.

Agree-I know MSU looked bad the other night, but I still think they're going to beat ASU.
The ultimate holy grail would be knocking off an undefeated USC that had just picked up Washington St's empire.
It's all based on geographical distance from the center of the county to the university. It's why Wyoming has the NW corner of our state.
The funniest ones to me are the Ole Miss land grab and Alaska.

CSU had no territory. Hawaii took it over.

Edit: Repost
We should get Arky and Nub territory, right?
Nope, just nub territory. CSU gets the pigs.
I thought if you beat someone you get their territory from then on? Or is it only who you beat on a weekly basis?
You get the territory they have at that time.

There is a lot more Kentucky, Hawaii and ASU on that map than I would have expected.
The one thing that bothers me with the imperialism map is the way it started. Air Force with more territory than CU & CSU combined in the state? New Mexico with parts of Colorado? UNLV with more territory in California than USC? The Nevada territory dominating northern CA? Utah State much more popular than Utah? Was this designed by a MWC fan or something?
we need ASU to be undefeated when we play them. Unlikely UCLA delivers any territory to us.
Too bad ASU is going to cough up their empire to Washington before we play them.
A) why does Hawai’i still have any land in Colorado? Per imperialism, if we marched from Boulder, through Fort Collins, into Nebraska, all that **** would be ours.
2) good for Wazzu and Minnesota - two largest areas on the map.

Would be even sweeter to take the territory from Washington.
Wouldn't be so bad if the original map had made sense and had made AFA a small island in a sea of gold.
Douglas and Arapahoe counties are AFA fans? Really?
Initial territory is based on distance from the school. AFA is the closest school to those counties.
