Notre Dame listed under former rivalries
editThe "former rivalries" section lists Georgia Tech, Penn State, and Notre Dame. Georgia Tech and Penn State both have references to reliable sources referring to them as rivalries, but the Notre Dame section only lists a site showing the all-time record. Looking over it, it seems that the two have only played eight times. Is there any reliable source that calls Notre Dame vs Alabama a rivalry? Notre Dame Fighting Irish football rivalries makes no mention of Alabama. 2600:6C56:A7F:F68B:4179:AF76:1DE6:680F (talk) 01:02, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- Absent any evidence that it's a rivalry, I've removed that section. 2600:6C56:A7F:F68B:A1C2:E152:C68C:4F4D (talk) 15:33, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

The dates for the FCS games are incorrect, Chattanooga goes in 2023, Mercer in 2024 and Eastern Illinois in 2025, plus Alabama scheduled a series with Minnesota that should be added. Thomallister1291 (talk) 16:22, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. MadGuy7023 (talk) 16:30, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

I believe that we should add how Alabama got the name ""Crimson Tide "". 47.226.43.211 (talk) 02:33, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
- The name origin is covered at University of Alabama traditions and somewhat at History of Alabama Crimson Tide football already. -Fnlayson (talk) 02:42, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
"Unclaimed national titles" in infobox
editWhat does this even mean? Is it just the times when a particular blog declares them national champions, but they do not claim it? I'm having trouble with squaring that with MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE, and also with the concept of undue prominence. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 01:37, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Colley isn't a "random blog", they're a recognized selector. Every football team has them for notable selections that could be claimed. glman (talk) 03:11, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Can you elaborate on that a bit more? — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 17:19, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you're looking for. I'd encourage you to open a discussion at WP:CFB if you're interested, as these appear for every team with a notable unclaimed title. The Colley Matrix is a notable selector, whom teams can claim titles through, not "a particular blog". glman (talk) 17:33, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Can you elaborate on that a bit more? — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 17:19, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Colley's is a computer poll or the equivalent, not a blog. -Fnlayson (talk) 03:14, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- What's notable about the Colley Matrix is that it's an NCAA-designated "major selector" of national championships and its annual No. 1 team is listed as a national champion in the NCAA records book. Including Alabama for 2016. PK-WIKI (talk) 18:18, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Penn St, Clemson, Mississippi St, and Florida are not rivals to Bama. Only Auburn, LSU, Ole Miss, and Tennessee are. 38.81.186.196 (talk) 07:51, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
