Consecutive Games Scoring More Than Seven Points

/

Through the 2019 season, Florida has an active streak of going 398 games without being shutout - a FBS record. But there was another impressive FBS scoring streak that Arizona State had going into their 2019 season. The Sun Devils had scored more than seven points in 134 straight games dating back to 2008. They extended the streak to 140 games before Utah held them to three points on 10/19. After a bit of digging, it looks like Alabama now has the longest streak of scoring more than seven points. The Crimson Tide have done it 117 times since being held to 6 points by LSU (an OT game) back on November 5th, during the 2011 season.

The Cornhusker faithful, numbering 86,818, turned out for Scott Frost’s return (Georgia was second as they totaled 82,184 between the hedges) - and the most impressive thing to me is that Memorial Stadium seats 85,458.

Another astounding number is the 368 consecutive sellouts at Memorial Stadium - a sttreak that dates all the way back to 1962…
