Unrelated, but still interesting---in seeing how Washington ended Miami's 58-game home winning streak (which is pretty well-known), it made me wonder what the streak was before it.
It actually lasted 19 years (instead of almost 10) and yet, was 1 game less than Miami's.
Sort of a tricky one.
Alabama, under Bear Bryant, won 57 straight games in Tuscaloosa over 19 years. Remember, they played some home games in Birmingham, at Legion Field. I believe they always played Auburn there.
But in all his years at Alabama, Bryant only lost twice in Tuscaloosa: in the 60s, upset by Florida and then in his last game there, an upset loss to Southern Miss.
