This one took forever, but with 140 teams, there was due to be at least one mistake :( For my Illinois fans, you all will be getting a special video in the near future! Hopefully you all enjoy the rest of this huge imperialism!
I didn’t read the comments and I still noticed that he accidentally took out Illinois instead of northwestern but that’s due to absolute hard work and the dedication
Look, I agree with you, and it's not MY fault my comment somehow wound up being the comment RU-vid decided to show, but... I've been there. I know how it sucks. If only RU-vid, I dunno, didn't have comment thumbnails in the first place!
I love these. Doing one every few months would be something I’d watch every time, even though I know this takes a lot of time on your side. Wouldn’t even need to change it up every time. Just seeing the different teams that make it out is what I love. I appreciate the hard work you put into your videos While watching, something I thought of that could make an interesting twist (but would elongate the video immensely) would be that for every win a team gets, they get a protection. So if the first team to play wins their first game, but then lose their second, they wouldn’t lose all their territory. Maybe even have the college lines kept in place so that way the team that loses only loses 1 of their territories for a lose? Like I said, it would elongate this immensely, but then teams that garner a lot of land wouldn’t lose it all from a team that hasn’t played for a while. While that’s part of this series, this change could be a cool thing to try.
for Montana you could have Montana and Montana State! Last Two years MSU has gone fairly far in the FCS Playoff. it would be interesting to see how they stack up
I’m just happy Mississippi State beat Alabama. They can’t seem to do that in real life 😂 thanks for the comment about Mike Leach. We all miss him so much. Hail State
Absolutely incredible. Thank you for your dedication to making this. Can't wait to see v3 when you add in the entire FCS lmao EDIT: As a Tulane fan, I am definitely in shambles rn
I like that you decided to add some FBS schools to your game. That being said, the teams you took should have included these: Jacksonville State, Sam Houston State, and Kennesaw State along with New Mexico State and Liberty (both FBS schools who you didn't include either) will be joining CUSA in 2023. If you are going to reach for FCS schools you should first include ALL the FCS schools that exist. Next should be those who are moving from FCS to FBS. Then fill your field with FCS schools. That being said, I am impressed that you included North Dakota and North Dakota State in the pool as one of these two is almost always in the FCS National Championship game.
Really been enjoying these. Glad to see my Mountaineers (WVU) didn't get eliminated off the bat this time and won a few. And yes, Pitt is one of our biggest rivalries. We just don't play them much anymore.
If WV had come over to the big12 in the 06-08 time frame with pat white. I do believe that WV would have but the status quo that is college football in the fucking chaos. I’m an Oklahoma sooners fan and I do believe you guys could have been ranked way way higher. Before the big 12 I don’t think college football gave, WV the credit that they deserved.
@bengertz2212 Yea. We had a great team back then. Seems like WV gets snubbed allot in rankings. But as a diehard fan of my Mountaineers, it can be hard to be looked at as a legitimate contender when you lose the games you're supposed to win.
As a Georgia Southern graduate, Kyle Vantrease fumbling the ball on the last play pretty much sums up his season at southern. Incredible games, crazy stats, upsets, and then the inevitable turnover.
Huh...surprised none of the FBS Schools that aren't in the Revamped mod (UMass, UConn, NM State, etc.) got added. Also you could probably add a couple schools that are in states without any reps yet (Montana, Rhode Island, and Maine all have FCS teams)
Adding the FCS schools was a fantastic choice. The last imperialism was a blast and this one was somehow EVEN MORE entertaining. My hometown Vols were doing great until my current local team suddenly decided to not be hot garbage. Great win for the 49ers.
(Spoiler warning!!!) These upsets were insane. Other than Michigan winning it all, I loved every second (Nothing against Michigan- I’m just a Michigan State fan). The kind of devotion and effort that goes into these videos is unbelievable, and I think March Madness is so crazy this year because it was sick of your videos being more chaotic than it.
As a Michigan fan words can’t describe how happy I am that Ohio State lost to Akron and that Michigan Beat Michigan State. My day has been made from Michigan winning the whole thing and thank you so much Bordeaux for putting so much time and effort into this video
Are you able to add players to the winning team? I think it would be cool if you added the best player from the losing team to the winning team, and maybe even add any player won via conquest from a losing team to the team that beat them. For an example, if OSU beat IU and Purdue, they would get the 2 best players from the schools. Then if Penn state beat OSU, they would get OSU’s best player along with the players OSU had previously won by beating Purdue and IU
Also here's an idea: what if after a team is selected they get removed from the wheel and you do rounds of wheels? That would prevent teams like North Carolina from hanging out until the last moment.
Great to see the addition of the FCS teams in this imperialiasm. Not a complaint but would've loved to see the Big Sky teams (Montana schools, Sacramento St, UC Davis etc.) in here as well as one of the top FCS conferences. Then almost the whole map is covered outside of the northern part of New England and Alaska.
So I just discovered your channel today. I watched this video and the 126-game playoff. I find your videos fascinating! I guess it helps that I'm a Michigan fan lol. But I honestly thought that Tulane was going to pull that out. What an interesting way to set up a tournament!
I think you should go back and have a one-game winner-take-all with Michigan vs. Illinois. Since the Illini were never beaten and kind of got the shaft in this video.
Have an idea for you, each time a team wins a new territory, add the other teams highest player or maybe boost the team overall. This gives smaller teams that have an upset win a better chance of making an even deeper run. You don’t have to give as much of a boost to the powerhouses as you may have to for the smaller teams.
it might be a year later but i just wanted to come back to this video and tell you this was the first imperlism video i watched from you and wanted to say this before the new game comes out cuz this is the video where you became my favorite youtuber and when i started watching you
