Longest Head-to-Head Winning Streaks in Sports
The most straight wins one side ever strung together against the other. A tie ends a streak. Top of the list: Yale Bulldogs won 46 straight against Wesleyan (CT), 1875 to 1913 (College Football).
How this list works
Each series appears once, with the longest run of straight wins either side has had against the other. Runs shorter than 3 games are left out, and a tie ends a streak. "Active" marks a run that includes the latest meeting of a series still being played. Every league's rows compete for the same places, ranked by the same number.
Each row links to the full matchup page, opened on that league's numbers. Think you know who leads a series? Try the rivalry quiz.
