Now, all that said, I think it's probably a moot point. I don't believe we'll go 16-0. I don't believe any team ever will. If we do, I'd probably consider that at least the equivalent of DiMaggio's 56, if not even harder. And 19-0? Good grief...

The pressure of 16-0 is alleviated on the last game of the season. The new pressure of the playoffs and SB are exponentially larger and more difficult to surpass.
