A thread to celebrate what may be one of the most stunning displays of consistent success we may ever see. Not something I actually imagined happening even with the watered down American because this team is always up for the biggest challenge they can create.

Aside from the Globetrotters, the longest winning streak I am aware of is Mount Union football at 112 (above the high school level). Ironically, winning the national championship this year would place UConn at 113 for the longest winning streak of all-time.

In the immaculate words of Bill Walton, GO FOR 200, GENO!

But focus on the next one and treasure it dearly.

The streak will hit 112, but then UConn will lose the Championship game to Mississippi State, the only team in the NCAA with a good enough combo of inside and outside game to have a shot against them.

And yes, I'm extremely aware that we lost to them by 60 in the Sweet 16 last year.

UConn really has a streak going? How long is it?

Congratulations Harry. I had a post typed at half time but I deleted it so I wouldn't jynx it. What a feat to treasure forever. Women's Game of the Century? Absolutely beautiful. Now take the trophy!
