Ohio state I think had 30 straight under urban. We are not close unfortunately but would be awesome to break and shove it in their faces.
September 30th, 2023 at 10:44 PM ^
Ahhh. Thanks goose! Beat PSU this year and next year it will be something to look forward to entering the year.

The streak broke the next game w a loss at msu. Funny thing is every time they start talking about the record they lose the next game. In 2021 there was an article on the record stating that by years end they would break the record after beating um and the b10 championship and we all know what followed.

So they don't count the 2013 Big Ten Championship Game loss to MSU? I guess it is technically not a regular-season conference game, but it is versus a conference opponent and seems like a pretty big asterisk.
The amazing stat to me is they only won one Big Ten title during that streak.

OTOH, our current streak of 17 wins does count the two BTCG. So if we're being consistent, OSU's streak of Big Ten wins ended in 2013 (at 16) and their 30-game streak is only for regular-season conference wins.

2013 B1G title loss! Where's the photo of Urban eating cold pizza???

I remember as a young lad when Michigan set the record in 1992 against Northwestern, a 40-7 win in Evanston. That was 19 straight Big Ten wins. Unfortunately, they couldn't add to that because the last two weeks of the season, they tied both Illinois and Ohio State. No overtime in those days.
September 30th, 2023 at 11:31 PM ^
Last loss was at MSU in ‘21.
October 1st, 2023 at 12:01 AM ^
Questionable loss. And overall win considering... enjoy the good times!
October 1st, 2023 at 10:39 AM ^
We would be at 20 if not for the fake loss to msu.
October 1st, 2023 at 11:49 AM ^
It would be 22. We beat Rutgers, Wisconsin, Nebraska and Northwestern before that game.
September 30th, 2023 at 11:45 PM ^
21 straight non-CFP game wins. Last non-CFP game loss was to #SpartySucks in October of 2021.
This team feels like Bo's teams in the 70s. Knock the living hell out of each and every opponent. Hit em' harder than they've ever been hit in their entire lives.
So much fun to watch.

Another interesting conference stat shown last night: Notre Dame has won 30 straight regular-season games versus the ACC. The one asterisk loss during that streak was to Clemson in the ACC Championship Game during the 2020 COVID year when Notre Dame joined the ACC for conference play in football for one year.
October 1st, 2023 at 7:59 AM ^
ACC? People keep track of that conference?

Michigan's current conference winning streak is 15, so it's tied for the 10th longest streak ever. Here were the standings going into this season.
1. Ohio State, 30 (2012-15)
2. Ohio State, 26 (2018-21)--broken by Michigan
3. Ohio State, 20 (2005-07)
4. Michigan, 19 (1990-92)
5. Ohio State, 17 (1954-56)
5. Ohio State, 17 (1967-69)--broken by Michigan
5. Ohio State, 17 (1974-76)--broken by Michigan
8. Michigan State, 16 (1965-67)
8. Michigan, 16 (1996-98)
10t. Five times, including Michigan, 15 (1988-90) and 15 (2021-)

The top three spots though…Jesus. I’m looking forward to usurping those with our own streaks over the next 15 years.
October 1st, 2023 at 11:48 AM ^
Were going to take over that number 3 spot in a few games. PSU game looms huge. If we get the PSU game I think this team has a chance to take over the number 2 and maybe number 1 spot mid next year.
October 1st, 2023 at 11:51 AM ^
Those numbers are if you don't count the Big Ten Championship Game as a Big Ten game ... which seems kind of odd.

UM's run from 1988 thru end of 1992 season vs. B1G was 35-2-3. The two losses were back to back home vs. MSU (the trip) and Iowa. I was at both games (one point losses) :<(. The last two ties were also back to back to end the 92 season vs. Illinois and Ohio. As much as Ohio has had some dominant runs, we've moved the needle back in our favor. PSU is the difference between the B1G of the last 80s early 90s when UM was dominant and only had to fight off Ohio. They present a tough matchup in Happy Valley in the years we play at home vs. Ohio.
October 1st, 2023 at 12:54 PM ^
In that period (late '80s/early '90s) OSU was actually a little down, relatively speaking. Iowa had some good teams under Hayden Fry. Sometimes Illinois or Sparty was good. It wasn't quite the "Big 2, little 8" like in the '70s. Michigan was on top and then there was parity in the next few spots in the standings.

We can be in 3rd place soon
