[edit] Michigan

My mistake, read the preview wrong, whoops. michfan2123 (talk) 23:07, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Item for discussion

I do also want to let you know that I undid one change you made because I disagree. I wanted to spell out my reasoning so we can discuss further if you wish. The edit was this one to 2005 Texas Longhorn football team.

You are of course correct that the BCS does not issue a final poll after the BCS championship game. I would certainly agree with you that there is no "final BCS #3" or "final BCS #15". However, the BCS game does crown the BCS champion. I think it is clear that the BCS champion is the #1-ranked team in the BCS. "BCS #1-ranked" and "BCS champion" are really synonyms. Therefore, Texas did finish the 2005 season as the #1 team in the BCS system. It is appropriate to list them as such in the infobox. I restored the #1 BCS ranking.

Please let me know if you don't accept my reasoning.

[edit] Order of team in tables

I have reordered the teams in each table to put the most recent winners first (e.g., USCs NC is more recent than OUs). Newguy34 (talk) 17:07, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Go Buckeyes

O-H-I-O. There must be a playoff system in college football. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohio state buckeyes football68 (talk • contribs) 14:11, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] why

Why r u aginst the playoff system. It is a great way to determine a real champion, so we would know if teams like ohio state have 7 or 5 national titles —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohio state buckeyes football68 (talk • contribs) 00:47, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] You make a very good point

but what if the natioal title game was played in the Rose Bowl and still called the Rose Bowl just some we could get rid of bowls like The Chic Fila Peach Bowl or The Pacific Life Holiday bowl.

[edit] Categorization for the bowl game templates

Great job on the templates. However, the category should be Category:American college football bowl games by team navigational boxes and not Category:American college football navigational boxes. Thanks. :) --Woohookitty^Woohoo! 04:22, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

I'd like to second that. I've been watching my watchlist fill up with all the changes to the bowl game articles I'm working on, and I'd just like to say thanks. JKBrooks85 (talk) 19:38, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
