 * Delete fails GNG. We have far too many of these synthetic rivalry articles... SportingFlyer  T · C  07:53, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete:  Subject does not meet the WP:NRIVALRY due to a lack of independent WP:SIGCOV about the rivalry itself. The current sources is essentially a compilation of reports of non-notable individual games and database sources glued together here on Wikipedia in a way not done by any outside sources.

 * Delete per all the above. As far as I can tell, all of the sourcing available for this matchup amounts to primary sources, statistical databases, and run-of-the-mill sports reporting of individual games and seasons that lacks the requisite overview-level coverage of the matchup/rivalry as a whole cohesive topic needed to establish notability.

 * Delete. Not finding WP:SIGCOV, i.e., in-depth coverage about this as a notable rivalry. What we have is two FCS programs that (a) meet regularly because they're in the same conference, and (b) share the same team nickname 'Bulldogs'. What we don't have is the needed SIGCOV or other objective indicia of a notable rivalry. Cbl62 (talk) 20:51, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
