 * Length, history OK, offline source accepted in good faith. However, I've added in "college football" for "the" before "AP Poll" because it might not have been clear to the reader, hope the nominator doesn't mind.  I'll notify him, but also close the discussion yes.  We'll adjust it if there's a need.--Wehwalt (talk) 01:00, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
