Streaking Bobcats

Quinnipiac is off to the best start to a season in program history. Curious to see where it ranks among the best starts of all-time, I pored through media guides of all 60 Division I teams to cull data. Here's how the Bobcats stack up against the longest season-opening streaks in Division I since Cornell finished the 1969-70 season at 29-0. (NOTE: this post will be updated accordingly):
