Chasing the players
There is a photo on this pages with the caption 'Former football head coach Greg Robinson "chases" the last of his players onto the field before the kickoff of his inaugural 2005 season.' Why is the word "chases" in quotation? He is actually chasing them. - Mdriver1981 (talk) 19:51, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

All Americans
Cuse has had 42 All Americans. The infobox syntax allows for links to players' articles, but 42 people is obv. too many to link. Should we just leave the number, or include some players based on certain criteria?Darry2385 (talk) 12:15, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't forget to sign your comments. As far as the infobox, the way I have seen it done on other college football pages is just to list the number. I would check out a few other team football pages if you need examples to look at. Hope this helps! Cardsplayer4life (talk) 00:32, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Split tag
Is there a notability criteria for having separate lists of results like this? I would have thought a college team would not be notable enough to warrant a separate article. Op47 (talk) 23:22, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Football rivalries (updates needed)
At least a couple of updates are needed to the 'Football rivalries' section:


 * New subsection needed on SU's rivalry with Colgate - longer than any other (see 'Early history' section and footnote).
 * Subsection on Penn State rivalry needs to be updated to include their 2013 game.
 * Series totals may need updating.

Name of stadium
To remain neutral and not be influenced by the current marketing strategy of the Syracuse University Athletic Department, I am of the opinion that the official name of the stadium should be used in the article, i.e. the Carrier Dome. To see an article about this marketing strategy, see the following article https://www.syracuse.com/orangefootball/2019/08/syracuse-scrubs-all-64-carrier-mentions-from-football-guide-its-just-the-dome-now.html

A template to replace the future non-conference schedule with all future games
Since there is now a variable schedule for the future, I am putting this template here and in some of the team talk pages so fans can input their future schedules. The vertical format used for non-conference schedules was almost impossible to edit because there was no year included in the body of the table. This horizontal format shows all games in a given year in order. Have fun with the input.

Future opponents
