Future football schedules. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of sports trivia. The logic of WP:FUTURE applies as well. Also, material is not being kept up, since the "future season" of 2012 has already occurred. GrapedApe (talk) 12:50, 12 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep I am the creator of the article. No new arguments here since the last time. This is still referenced information. "Not kept updated" is a terrible reason to delete something. Would President Obama's article be deleted if it wasn't updated? It's no less important if it were. I spent 10 minutes doing 2 edits to keep it updated which was probably a lot easier than nominating for deletion. MECU ≈ talk 14:26, 12 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete - Not an encyclopedic topic. This is not the place for this sort of information, which is easily available on the net. Carrite (talk) 16:43, 12 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - This article has the same issue of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football future schedule, wikipedia is not the right place for this content, football games don't have a fixed date many games get canceled, which is an event we cannot predict, hence WP:CRYSTAL.

 * Delete - if you want to find a future schedule of some sporting events, you check the team or league website, not the Wikipedia. First point from CRYSTALBALL applies here as well. Ezhuks (talk) 06:52, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep Article is well sourced and notable. No new deletion arguments are raised, and the Wiki community has shown its ability to keep up with this particular article.  The "not encyclopedic" argument is a classic from Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions and has no relevance here.  Also, the WP:CRYSTAL argument also does not apply--although the events are "in the future" they are scheduled as of now (as the sources indicate).  Crystal states that if the "event is notable and almost certain to take place" then it can be considered.  While one may argue that this game or that game may or may not take place, it is reasonably certain that the University of Colorado will have a football schedule in 2014 and 2015.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:55, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge to Colorado Buffaloes football. Content is notable and verifiable, but not substantive enough to warrant its own article. Jweiss11 (talk) 15:10, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. The content of this list/article is redundant to that already included in the "Future non-conference opponents" section of the parent Colorado Buffaloes football article.  I also share the WP:CRYSTAL concerns voiced by others.  Furthermore, I note that this article is one of only four or five CFB "future schedules" lists; in all other instances, similar material has been merged/incorporated directly into the parent article regarding the particular CFB team.
