Good way to lose interest fast if you lose early

Conversely, if you beat someone you should get their territory

Just hard to believe PSU had not territory considering they won their last 3 or 4 games of the season heading into the bowl

It’s basically like risk for CFB.


Risk as in proper noun Risk you played as a kid?

If so it is nothing like it because in the board game Risk the winner had all the territory as a zero sum game. Football is also a zero sum game so the final map should be 100% Clemson.

I just assumed A&M would have northern California on lock down especially San Fran.

Not really, because all the CFB team don't play each other, so it can't really be a zero sum game. But acquiring territories in this map is like the game of Risk, which is the simplest way to explain how the map works for inquiring people

It’s a map showing the real estate won by each university via the underground gambling industry.

It's something sbnation has been doing for the past 2-3 years. It really wouldn't take long for an IT nerd to generate something like this. It's not meant to be taken seriously.

We've already established you don't know what a proper noun is, but yes, the game.
