Amon Carter Stadium is where streaks go to die

In this year's edition of the Initial Bowl, TCU whupped up on previously undefeated BYU last night 32-7, ending the longest current undefeated streak in college football at 16 games. But that seems to be the pattern at TCU's Amon Carter Stadium. The last time the two teams played there, BYU ended TCU's 13-game winning streak, which was at that time the longest in the nation. Who has the longest winning streak in the country now? Three teams -- Penn State, Texas Tech and Utah, which had an 18-game winning streak snapped in 2004 by ... you guessed it ... TCU in Amon Carter Stadium. Oh, yes, Utah still has to play TCU this year. Fortunately for the Utes, that game will be played at Utah's Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City.
