[edit] UCLA vs Stanford (2005)

I find it hard to see that a college game meets the notability requirements but I don't see anything remarkable about this one. I recall a long debate where an England v Germany international football match only just survived an AfD. Simply put, I don't think any club game meets the requirement unless it is to decide a major national cup, for example. Delete. BlueValour 23:44, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Certainly some major college football games, such as the one with The Play or Georgia Tech's 222-0 win over Cumberland in 1916, are noteworthy enough. But this was just another Pac-10 regular-season game. -- Mwalcoff 23:57, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete As far as WP is concerned, this game is as non-notable as every game played by the Knicks last season. -- Kicking222 00:34, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete and kick Kicking for giving the Knicks too much credit. --DarkAudit 00:58, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete — Per above. — RJH (talk) 02:39, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, just another regular season game with no standalone notability. "The 2005 edition of the UCLA-Stanford game was one of the best." POV much? --Kinu ^t/_c 03:43, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per all these well reasoned arguments. There's just no encyclopaedic content to that game. WilyD 16:58, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Keep Let me explain why this is notable. It was the biggest comeback of the 2005 college football season. I have seen hundreds of games as a college football fan, and I can say that this is one of the best. This needs to be kept, since it was one of the best in school history--Summonmaster13 00:09, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Stanford student here, and I don't even remember there being any fuss over this. Not like, say, when Texas A&M broke their decades-long losing streak to UT and the impromptu street party lasted all night (not that I'd put that game in WP either). --Jamoche 18:14, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per DarkAudit. Eluchil404 07:54, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
