1966 Alabama Crimson Tide football team

 * ... that Green Bay Packers head coach Vince Lombardi said of the 1966 Crimson Tide football team: "I don't know, we haven't played Alabama yet" when asked how it felt to have the world's greatest football team after winning Super Bowl I?

 * Symbol question.svg Article is new enough and long enough. The main hook is the most interesting but exceeds 200 characters (currently 234).  Can you tighten it a bit in an alt hook? Cbl62 (talk) 03:38, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
 * How about ... alt 2 ... that Vince Lombardi said of the 1966 Crimson Tide, "I don't know, we haven't played Alabama yet", when asked how it felt to have the world's greatest football team after winning Super Bowl I?
 * I have struck through the original hook and agree alt 2 does work better and support it as the preferred hook. The only change I made is a wikilink back to American football in the hook. Thanks for the review and suggestion! Patriarca12 (talk) 12:59, 26 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg  Everything checks out.  However, since I proposed alt 2, someone else needs to step in to give this the green tick. Cbl62 (talk) 00:45, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg ALT 2 is fine. SL93 (talk) 20:38, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
