|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| team_id | Stable CFBTrack team identifier used to connect schedules, seasons, rosters, recruiting, weather, and draft records. | Core team and normalization tables | Used across all seasons where a team has normalized CFBTrack records. | Historic aliases, discontinued programs, and source-name changes can require manual normalization. | Browse teams |
| school | Primary public school or program name displayed in navigation, headings, tables, and comparison labels. | Core team metadata | Current program identity with historical context where available. | Older records can use former names, abbreviations, or source-specific aliases. | Team profile |
| conference | Conference label attached to the selected season or current program context, depending on the route. | Conference membership tables | Season-specific where historical conference membership has been loaded. | Realignment, independents, divisions, and short-lived affiliations can make current labels differ from historical labels. | Conference pages |
| season_record | Win, loss, and tie summary used on team pages and season-level historical views. | Schedule and season summary feeds | Best for seasons with complete game and result records. | Vacated games, postseason treatment, and source corrections can change historical totals. | Team history |
| venue_id | Stadium or venue identifier used to connect a team, game, stadium profile, location, and weather context. | Venue and schedule metadata | Available where venue records are matched to games or team home fields. | Neutral-site, relocated, older, or renamed venues can require source reconciliation. | Stadium directory |
| recruiting_class_rank | Team-level recruiting class rank used when a program page summarizes incoming talent. | Recruiting feed and class summaries | Strongest for modern recruiting classes with complete rating coverage. | Ranks can move after reclassifications, late signees, or source corrections. | Team recruits |
