Regular season college football game that is not notable enough to warrant its own stand-alone a article Jweiss11 (talk) 18:57, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Tobacco Bowl or, alternatively, Delete. Despite the title, this is actually a regular season (October) rivalry game between two FCS programs. In general, the College Football WikiProject deals with individual rivalry games in an overall article about the rivalry. Here, an article on the rivalry as a whole exists, and the best resolution is to merge any useful content into the rivalry article at Tobacco Bowl. Cbl62 (talk) 19:13, 16 December 2017 (UTC) Not a lot of useful content in the article, but no harm in merging what's there into the main reivalry article.

Redirect to Tobacco Bowl. I looked around using Google to try and find some coverage of the final Tobacco Bowl game, but didn't find any. Without significant, third-party coverage the Tobacco Bowl does not satisfy the general notability guidelines for inclusion in Wikipedia. In addition, there is not any useful material that needs to be merged. Malinaccier (talk) 00:46, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge regular season games can be notable, but this one doesn't seem to be. However, the scores and such could easily be merged in to the master article. Leaving a redirect is fine by me.--Paul McDonald (talk) 23:12, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete- the score of the game is already in the Tobacco Bowl article and there's not much else here. Doesn't seem like a notable game.--Rusf10 (talk) 04:08, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
