I am not sure why I like this as much as I do. It is 100% meaningless. With the P12 down to only 3 landholders, this is our chance to take back most of Utah.

As far as total land area goes, due to Alaska, we may perhaps have the largest amount of anyone.
But do like the idea of regaining our home turf this weekend.

if we just win out well take all that land from Oregon eventually instead of them giving it to someone else first.

According to the article Utah owns the most land with 661 k square miles. Without Alaska they have 90.5 k.

We could gain quite a bit of ground the next two weeks if:
we beat UCLA this week
Oregon somehow falls to Arizona this week
we beat Arizona next week

Remind me how this map works?
BTW, I question the validity of any map where a .500 Breed ‘Em Young team has so much territory. We Mormons haven’t possessed so much land in the midwest since before Liburn Boggs was governor. 😉

See Reddit/R/CFB
Everyone starts with their own land. If you win you gain your opponents territory. In theory a 1-11 team could get a huge amount of land if they win their last game against a landowner.
BYU has land because they beat an undefeated boise state team and haven’t lost since. My guess is SDSU ends up with all that land.

Shouldn’t we have retaken the homeland after beating Washington. After all they did beat BYU.

Utah took BYU’s land in week one. Since Tennessee had lost the week prior, BYU didnt get any land from TN. BYU then beat SC and took their land along with Fresno state, and Stanfords land since USC had beat them and they were both unbeaten before SC beat them. Utah then Lost to USC and lost all of their land to USC. BYU then list to WA and lost all of their land they gained from USC to WA. since Utah had already beaten BYU, BYU didnt own their orginal 1/3 of the state so WA could not have taken it from them. USC owned those 2/3 at the time. Also, Ut St. Lost their 1/3 in week one to WF.

It’s not hard guys. Every team starts the season with their territory. If you lose in week one, your territory goes to the team that beat you. Vice versa if you win. If you have no land you can gain land by beating a team that owns land. If you beat a team that owns land, you get ALL of that teams land. Then if you go and lose the next week, you lose ALL of that land.

I follow this map each season. Silly but fun. I remember a year or two ago when UNLV upset Nevada (Reno) on the last day of the regular season and took some land away from them and since UNLV wasn’t bowl eligible (and didn’t have to defend their land), they were one of an small number of teams that ended up with property when the season ended.
