Intro:

This map displays the closest NCAA Division I Football Team (FBS DI-A) to the geometric center of every US county (2010 Census).

Imperialism is the main mechanic of this map, which transfers the county ownership to the winner in each week. For example, if Clemson beats Alabama, any land owned by Alabama, would become Clemson land, etc. Any land that Alabama had obtained previous as well would now be Clemson's.

This is a cumulative mechanic which begins on week one, carries through the current week, and will end after the National Championship game.

How is land transferred?

To gain land a team must beat a team that is currently on the map. They gain all land owned by that team.

Team A beats Team B, Team C then beats Team A, Team B then beats Team C. Who gets the land?

Team B, Land transfers depend on the time winning. Because Team B won last they will then own all three teams land.
