 * Hey there, good to see you back. Thanks for adding the article on 2004 Texas Longhorn football team.  On that article's talk page, I tagged it with the project tags of two WikiProjects that I work with.  One of them relates to all things college football, the other relates to all things related to The University.  You might be interested to check them out: WikiProject College football and  WikiProject University of Texas at Austin.  They also both have portals:  UT Portal and College football portal.  Finally, there is Texas Portal, Texas Wiki Project and the Texan Collaboration of the Month.  I hope that is not over-whelming!  You certainly don't need to join any project at all.  We welcome your contributions where-ever and how-ever-often you can make them. Johntex\talk 01:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

2004 Texas Longhorn football team
Hello, I'm sorry to hear you think it is an ugly table. (That's not a very nice thing to say about something that has involved a lot of work, but I'll let that pass). This table is the standard format being developed by WikiProject College football. I find it superior to the table you were using for several reasons: I invite you to come join us and tell us how the table can be further improved. Please don't revert the change without coming to discuss it. Thanks! Johntex\talk 03:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC) 6. Another point is that it is more efficient to mark the non-conference games, since they are less common. Johntex\talk 03:11, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) A significant portion of the male population has red-green color blindness, so the colors in your table are lost on them.
 * 2) Even for those who are not color blind, the alternating shades of grey are easier to follow across the table since the alternate on each line.
 * 3) The new table is more informative, as it will allow us to track the ranking of the team over the season (as soon as I find a source for that info and add it).
 * 4) Ditto on the stadium played.
 * 5) Ditto on the time of day (day/night) game.
