Individual results for a college football team are not inherently notable, and there’s no evidence of substantial, reliable, independent sources to help meet WP:GNG Cardiffbear88 (talk) 11:48, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Merge certainly as written the article needs more sourcing to make a call, and if that's its final state the nominator is correct. I think what we should do here is more of an editing-preference, which would be to combine several articles in question into a more concise and easily sourced article.  Suggestions include 2017 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference football season (which already exists) or Slippery Rock football or Slippery Rock athletics.  There's call for inclusion of the material, but I think that we need to make an editing decision here and not a deletion issue.  This goes for Articles for deletion/2017 Shippensburg Raiders football team as well.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:50, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2017 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference football season per Paul. Not finding the same level of coverage here as at Articles for deletion/2017 Shippensburg Raiders football team. Merging seems reasonable. Cbl62 (talk) 15:40, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Merge Some coverage but I think a merge is probably the best option here. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 00:13, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
