Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2011 Michigan vs. Notre Dame football game
Wondering where the AFD stands. I commend TheWorm77 for finding sources for the article, but I still believe with sources, the article violates Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Individual_games_or_series and is |routine. Consider that the sources that are being used are routine coverage. While they are continuing coverage in a sense, they are all routine "end of the year" of "best of 2011" articles. Sportswriters write these articles on a yearly basis to recap the season. Moreover, none of these articles rate the game as the most important game of the year and are trivial recaps of the game. One article used cites the game as the 36th best game of the year... not exactly important. None of the sources point to the game as important in a historical context. There is no coverage that reaches "game of the century" discussion or that discusses the impact of the game on the sport
