Early life and high school[edit]
- Add Campbell's birth date into this section
Done
- Remove the second mention of Barry Switzer being the Oklahoma Sooners head coach and dewikilink that mention since he is mentioned shortly before that particular sentence.
Done
College career[edit]
- "In 1975 he" - missing a comma
Done
- Spell out AFCA in full
Done
- "Leg injuries kept him out of four games his junior season," - Leg injuries kept him out of four games during his junior season,
Done
- "against Rice" - I think against the Rice Owls is better
Done
- "in a 57–28 victory over rival Texas A&M as Texas finished the season undefeated." - With the second mention of Texas, do you mean the Longhorns?
Done Yes, clarified
- "He also won the Chic Harley Award and was a unanimous All-American," - All-American player?
That's the common terminology, so I think it's better as is. Although I just noticed I forgot to cite that, so cited now.
Houston Oilers[edit]
- Most Valuable Player should have the acronyms in parentheses on its first mention
Done
- "cut short due to wear and tear." - I think wear and tear should be replace with more formal wording
Done Removed it altogether. I thought the same when I wrote it, but couldn't think of anything better. The source uses "too much pounding" which probably isn't any better.
- The last section of the fourth paragraph is unreferenced
Done
- "In 1984, under new head coach Hugh Campbell, Houston started the season with six straight losses." - ditto
Diddo
- "He had four games of over 200 rushing yards, a single-season record that still stands as of the end of the 2015 season." - Is this still the case as of 2016?
The 2016 season hasn't started yet, so yes, it remains true.
New Orelans Saints[edit]
- Remove duplicate link of Bum Phillips
Done
- "and continued to have a diminished role in the offense through the rest of the season." - throughout
Done
- The last section of the first paragraph has no references
Done
Legacy and honors[edit]
- Remove duplicate links of O. J. Simpson, The Sporting News and Tyler, Texas
Done
References[edit]
