Boasting the longest winning streak in the nation, TCU broke into the AP Top 25 college basketball poll on Monday with its highest ranking in almost 20 years.

The Horned Frogs (6-0) are at No. 23, their highest spot in the poll since they were No. 21 on Jan. 11, 1999, under Billy Tubbs.

They are coming off a championship at the Emerald Coast Classic in Niceville, Fla., where they defeated New Mexico and St. Bonaventure behind two double-doubles from guard Kenrich Williams.

Combined with five consecutive victories to win the NIT championship last season, the Frogs' 6-0 start gives them an 11-game winning streak that is the longest in the nation.
