Template:8Col15PollTable

{{Documentation|content=

Required parameters
Week# and Week#Date are required fields.

Purpose
This 8 week version was created to be used primarily for the BCS version of the Top15 Polls, but any other Top15 Polls that need 8 week columns can also use this. Specifically, if "ramping up" of the poll table size was desired, an author could use this until they needed a 9 week (or more) version and simply switch the template name to the next large size (yet to be created, but a 16 week version has been developed but not in Template space yet).

Color Codes
The Color Codes are parsed by the ColPollTable/CC template. If modification or addition or deletion of colors or color codes needs to be performed on this (or similar) table, it must be done there for the cells that involve the Week#-# data. The Dropped and "header" colors are on each template.

Color codes for the Week#-#-Color values: (Note: Only one of the letters (or npr) needs to be used, they are all equal to each other for the same color.)
 * FFE6E6: red or down
 * r
 * d
 * D8FFEB: green or up
 * g
 * u
 * FFFFE6 yellow or Not Previously Ranked
 * y
 * npr
 * Default FFFFFF
 * If no color code is given, or an unrecognized code is used, white will be used.
 * You may remove the Week#-#-Color if white is needed, or leave it blank. (ie, Week1-1-Color or Week7-24-Color)

For ties: (Note: only the top of the two tie teams should use this code. The other tie team should use the above code like regular.) These color codes will change the standard 1 pixel border at the bottom of the cell to the color specified by the code. The standard border is a gray, so using these codes in essence "joins" the two cells visually. See the example link below for a demonstration.
 * D8FFEB tie green or tie up
 * tg
 * tu
 * FFE6E6 tie red or tie down
 * tr
 * td
 * FFFFE6 tie yellow or tie not previously ranked
 * ty
 * tnpr
 * FFFFFF tie white
 * tw
