In looking back at our games last year, we are on a 10-game losing streak. Anyone know who holds the current longest losing streak? Mr. Google could not tell me at first glance.

Thanks RnB. Actually found this note in a story from FIU's win over NTSU to end their 23-game streak:
"Southern Methodist, Idaho and Minnesota will take 10-game losing streaks into next season -- the not-so-proud owners of the longest current skeins in major college football."

Well, one of Minnesota's losses is to a I-AA team and Idaho's single victory is against a I-AA team.
Sooo....
SCOREBOARD!!!

Yeah, so technically Idaho is sitting on a 16 game I-A losing streak because they lost 5 in a row to end the year.

But that equals out because our sole win was against NTSU.

And they were a high school team last year, if I'm not mistaken....

Yes the only reason they are D-1A is because they were blackballed from D-1AA by Texas State. MrMustangD-1AA led the conspiracy.

So...what you're saying is that Texas State (not my alma mater, btw) lead a campaign to keep NTSU from
dropping down to D1-AA from their current D1-A status?
