Below is a running list of states completed, announced and projected. As I see evidence of more than one for a state being announced I'll link to that and add rows for them. If you are interested in what is in the boxes or what this is all about scroll all the way down.
Click on links to see images of state banner, drop sites, and winners from BYU Football's facebook page. Also, when available, the CB post recap from winners.
I'm now partnering with
Coug Eastwood so we can provide more information to include maps through
Google Maps and Google Earth of where the promotion has visited. To view the Google Earth experience install Google Earth to your desktop or smart device then right click and save file as from
here to download a zip file then open the .kmz or .kml file in Google Earth. I know there is a way for us to host the kml or kmz file and view it on the web so people wouldn't be required to install the local client version but time/energy is short. Perhaps someone like MapCoug could help show us how to expedite that process 🙂

Fri, 08/29 Connecticut - GAME DAY ++++
++++ A SOURCE IN THE KNOW CONFIRMED CONNECTICUT WOULD BE LAST AND ANOTHER SOURCE EMPHASIZED IT WOULD BE ON 8/29 (GAME DAY). NOTE SOME OF THE CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS EVENT (WHICH TO BE FAIR MAY NOT HAVE COME FROM BYUFOOTBALL) MENTIONED 50 STATES IN 50 DAYS BUT IF YOU STARTED ON JULY 10TH (DAY 1) AND GO UP TO AND INCLUDE 8/29 YOU ARE ON THE THE 51ST DAY....PERHAPS IT WAS NEVER INTENDED TO BE 50 IN 50....OR PERHAPS IT WAS A MIX UP?...EITHER WAY I'M GETTING SOME FEEDBACK THAT BARRING LAST MINUTE CHANGES THESE ARE PRETTY ACCURATE GUESSES.
From BYU Football facebook page on July 1st
We'll be visiting EVERY state as we count down to kickoff!! Starting THURSDAY July 10th we'll be hitting one state per day (two on Saturdays - no Sundays) as we lead up to the season opener against UCONN on Friday August 29th!!
