2016 Tennessee vs. Georgia football game

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The game had a thrilling ending, but nothing extraordinary. It was just another hail mary. At least a half-dozen games every season end on a hail mary pass. The article was created a mere three days after the game ended, so long-term historical significance could not have been taken into account. On that note, the game will probably never have much historical significance since both teams are now largely irrelevant this season after losing several games.

 * The difference between this and PaJH is the circumstances. The plays may be similar but this one holds much less significance in the larger picture. Lizard  (talk) 01:48, 4 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete. Yes it was an exciting ending, but this game doesn't mean much in the scheme of either team's histories. Tennessee isn't going to go undefeated and be a surprise national champion, and Georgia isn't going to come off the rails into a dark time in program history. If both or either of those happened following this game, it would hold legitimate significance as turning points in these programs. But as the nominator said, a thrilling yet non-extraordinary ending. Jrcla2 (talk) 00:41, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
