No true sustained coverage. Upsets are common in College Football, though this was a significant one at the time. Esolo5002 (talk) 00:10, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: I agree with the above replies, while this was significant, we are not going to make a page for every upset. When Marshall beat Notre Dame two years ago, that was arguably as significant as this, and there is no page for that game.

  • Delete: I agree with the sentiment expressed above, a game like Texas—Texas A&M is more significant than a game like this. It correctly has its own page as it was widely covered and hyped as a historic contest, while this is simply a (now flukey) upset by a group of 5 team.
