Land changes this week

- After 15 years of sending Ol’ Crimson across the country to attend every College GameDay, fans came home and watched Washington State defeat Oregon. In doing so they found themselves once again spread out across the country with territory in Wisconsin, Kentucky, North Carolina, Utah, New Mexico, and California.

- Purdue pulled off the big upset of the weekend, as the Boilermakers handed Ohio State its first loss of the season and conquered all of the land Ohio State had collected.

- Temple gave Cincinnati its first loss of the season also and expanded its empire to contain Cincinnati and Oregon State.

- Utah scored 34 straight in a destruction of USC. The Utes’ win also gave them ownership of about half of all of the Pac-12’s current land.

- Clemson doubled its territory by defeating NC State and taking control of several territories in the Midwest as well as a small swatch in Texas.

- North Carolina A&T managed to win back the land it controlled for weeks 1 through 3 by defeating Bethune-Cookman.
