How accurate is this map of CFB fandom?

[Jax Husky]

Seems fairly correct to me. What does the BY think?

 

[jrazz12]

I especially like that part of the map with the block C covering NYC. Let BC take Vermont

 

[CTfan07]

Pretty cool. Don't think it's that accurate, though. USC and ND (and even Michigan) stand out because their fan bases are more national.

Anytime Indiana and Notre Dame have the same fanbase you know it's right? It's a fun decoration not a science project.

 

[DSquiz]

Although there is a lot of overlap where teams "dominate" I think it's pretty accurate.

a wyoming fan made this map

Yeah, I don't see Cal, Fresno and UCLA having bigger fanbase area than USC. I think Arizona is much more half and half, panhandle of Florida is wrong, Michigan smaller fanbase area than MSU, etc etc.

Who would be the most popular FBS teams in Montana? Washington State, Boise, Washington, Notre Dame and Oregon in some order?

North Dakota? - Nebraska, ND and Minnesota?

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

I'd say it's about 67% accurate.

Not accurate at all, in my opinion. My fixes would include the following (I'll try to restrain myself from telling you to cover the nation, including the state of Alaska, with a big block "C"):

1) Shrink BC in Vermont / western Mass and Syracuse in New York to make for a bigger UConn map.
2) Increase Penn State and shrink Pitt.
3) Increase ND and Mich and shrink Purdue and Mich St.
4) Shrink Colorado State and Texas Tech.
5) Shrink the hell out of UTEP.
6) Increase the hell out of USC and shrink Fresno and Cal.
7) Shrink the Vandals and increase Boise.
8) Shrink the Ducks and increase Oregon State.
9) Increase Stanford.
10) Wyoming.....wow! I know a guy from Montana, and he says that the Montana / Montana State rivalry is the thing up there, even though they are both 1-AA, so make that region a grayish color for "N/A".

That's my 10 cents...

11) shrink nebraska. nd and sd both have fcs team like mont and mont st and are all about fcs fball and puck.
12) az and azst should be more 5050
13) same with kansas/kst
14) ga/gt just doesn't look right
15) usf and ucf should get ecu type color on that map

 

[spsct]

B.C. covering all of NE except CT is just stupid. I think some team from Quebec probably has a bigger following in Maine.

 

[ZooCougar]

Definitely true about Montana.

 

[ZooCougar]

Also, where are the service academies?

 

[Palatine]

We should get Long Island and New Hampshire.

Where's Temple and that big Philadelphia market that folks were touting when they supported their return to BE. And East Carolina can't get a whiff of invite from the BE and their area shows up like Clemson's.
