Quite a streak
Quarterback Troy Smith has not thrown an interception since the first quarter of the Northwestern game on Nov. 12, 2005, a streak of 121 passes and more than four games. He has thrown just one in his past seven games, spanning 185 attempts.
Does anyone know what the longest streak in college is and by whom?

So far the most I can find is David Greene of Georgia in 2004. He holds the SEC record with 214. I can't find the National record though.
edit: Weinke had 237. I still don't think that's the record though.
edit 2: The NCAA record of consecutive passes without an interception is 271 by Fresno State's Trent Dilfer in 1993

According to the NCAA, Trent Dilfer has the record with 271 at Fresno State in 1993.
I believe the single season record is 224 ,shared by Omar Jacobs (BG in 2004), and Matt Blundin (Virginia in 1991).
In Division 1-AA, Jimmy Blanchard of Portland State set an NCAA all-division record in 1999 with 342.
Oddly, Northwestern's bio of Zak Kustok shows 277 during 2000-01 - I'm not sure why they list this when Dilfer holds the official record at 271.

Two more questions:
Where are you guys finding this information from?
What is the current record for number of passes thrown w/o interception?

Zak Kustok (Northwestern) had 277 consectuive passes without an interception..Not sure if that's the record, though.
Probably Dilfer is the most passes in one season and he broke Matt Blundin's record..and Zak's is over two seasons. Just guessing

Dilfer's record is for a single season. Kustok's record spans two seasons. According to the Northwestern Media Guide Kustok threw 7 INTs in 2000 and 10 in 2001, but did have a stretch across those two seasons where he attempted 277 passes without an INT.
