UND92,96 Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 I noticed an apparent error in the press release for this week's football game on www.fightingsioux.com. It states that the current home winning streak, including playoffs, is 11. However, by my count, it's actually 14. It started with USD the last home game of 2002. Last year, UND defeated UMC, Newberry, Augustana, St. Cloud St., NDSU, UNO, Pitt St., Winona St. and North Alabama at home. This year, UND has beaten Delta St., Mesa St., Central Washington and Ferris St in the Alerus. That adds up 14. The all-time UND record for longest home winning streak is 15.

The Sicatoka Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Could they have crossed up the regular season vs all games numbers? Streak for all games: 14 Streak for regular season games: 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakotadan Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 The 14 game home win streak is much more impressive. The simple fact that three of those games are playoff games with tougher competition is very impressive. If the sioux keep playing well, they could continue this streak for quite a long stretch.

UND92,96 Posted October 13, 2004 Author Share Posted October 13, 2004 Could they have crossed up the regular season vs all games numbers? Streak for all games: 14 Streak for regular season games: 11 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, that's probably what happened. I know for individual school records, post-season games don't count. However, for a record like this, I wouldn't think it makes sense to separate out post-season games since those wins actually make the streak even more impressive, as dakotaboy pointed out.

BigGreyAnt41 Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 As I pointed out in another, our defense also has a shutout going for over 9 straight quarters. 139:24 to be exact. Think we can extend it this weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
