I Live in Cavalier Country

. . . or maybe Hokie country. It's tough to say for sure. I commonly see stickers from both schools displayed on vehicles in northern Virginia. Just across the river is definitely Terrapin country, though. The map below attempts to divide the United States into areas based on the consensus team supported by the areas' inhabitants.

I'm a map junkie and a college football junkie, so I couldn't resist posting this map.



The map is located at the CommonConsensus Map Project, which hosts similar maps for the four major U.S. professional sports in addition to NCAA 1-A football. I found this website via strange maps, a fantastic site for map junkies like myself.

I'm off to add my vote now.

Trojans to Open Defense of 2007 National Championship At UVA

USC will open the 2008 season in Charlottesville, VA against the University of Virginia. The Cavaliers will make the return trip in 2010.

I better get to work now on acquiring tickets for the game. The 2004 contest against VA Tech at FedEx Field was an amazing spectacle. Plus, Charlottesville is a pleasant location for a weekender.
