This template remains a work in progress. The dataset now includes all of the current NCAA Division I FBS (formerly I-A) schools, almost all of the current Division I FCS schools, several Division II, Division III, and NAIA schools, and several Canadian universities that play U Sports football under Canadian rules.

Use of this template

{{Cfb conf}} allows linking to the appropriate college football conference article based on a given school and year.

This template is currently being used to list conferences of NFL draftees in the individual NFL Draft articles, e.g. 2010 NFL Draft.

Naming conventions

The school parameter should be the article name of the college or university's main WP article. Some common nicknames are also included, but these should not be relied upon for the sake of disambiguity.

Parameters

year Supply a year so that the correct conference can be selected
college The main article for this school, e.g., Florida State University, University of Virginia
