[edit] Consecutive non-shutouts
Some mention should be made somewhere of BYU's long-running record of consecutive games without being shut out (though sadly this ended a couple years ago). —pfahlstrom 16:59, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] "Brigham Young Cougars"
The article is called "Brigham Young Cougars football" and the phrase "Brigham Young Cougars" is used several times. I realize that many (perhaps most) other schools can drop the "University" from their name and sound decent. However, I don't think I've ever heard anyone say "Brigham Young Cougars." I've only heard people call the Cougars the "Brigham Young University Cougars" or, more commonly, the "BYU Cougars." People don't typically drop the word University or the letter U, in my experience. Am I crazy or out of the loop? Does "Brigham Young Cougars" bother anyone else? Do people unrelated to BYU call them the "Brigham Young Cougars"? -Milkncookie 15:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- I concur Milkncookie. I intended to move the page to BYU Cougars football, but you beat me to it. B 23:01, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:BYU Helmet.gif
Image:BYU Helmet.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Norm Chow
How does an article about BYU football not mention Norm Chow's name one time?

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:BYU Logo 1969-1998.gif
The image Image:BYU Logo 1969-1998.gif is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check
-
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
- That this article is linked to from the image description page.
