Unnecessary content fork of the Houston and Texas football teams. Relative to other rivalries and rivalry articles, this has no trophy, fewer contests, and less rivalry-specific coverage. pbp14:57, 24 October 2018 (UTC)reply
I understand that, but six weeks is a bit quick. And you did not link to the prior AfD, so I thought you might have been unaware. Could you go ahead and add the link in the AfD box above?

SportingFlyer: The reason I didn't find the previous AfD is that the article was renamed since the previous AfD. The claim that this hasn't been properly created is off. Anyway, can we not get so hung up in bureaucracy and address the fact that this is not a notable rivalry? pbp14:50, 25 October 2018 (UTC)reply
Delete no evidence this particular pairing of football teams is particularly notable. Otherwise, if a competition has n teams, we'd be creating (n*(n-1))/2 articles for every possible pairing of teams. "Rivalry" articles should only exist if the pairing is demonstrated to somehow be noteworthy.
