Most Consecutive Winning Seasons in College Football

Two years ago, one of the most impressive streaks in college football came to an end – Florida State’s 41-year streak of winning seasons came to an end with a loss to their rival Florida.  But in the town of McMinnville, Oregon, there is a current streak that will put the Seminoles run to shame.  Linfield College, which has fewer than 2,000 students and plays their football in Division III, hasn’t had a losing season since Dwight D. Eisenhower was in the White House.  The Wildcats finished 2019 with an 8-2 record – their 64th consecutive winning season.  During this time, Linfield has also claimed four national championships!  Currently, three teams remain tied for second on the all-time consecutive winning seasons’ list with 42:  Harvard, Notre Dame, and Central College in Iowa.  I have no doubt that Mount Union, whose active streak is now at 40, will pass those schools, but catching Linfield will be a tall task because the Wildcats aren’t showing any sign of slowing down just yet.

A remarkable achievement by Linfield no matter the level played!
