Spot on. by KeoughCharles05

The "unprecedented" part of it is nonsense.

It's also pretty easy to just do winning percentage.
Just looking at 5 year winning % will show this is the best stretch since 88-93. Of course, the 88-93 stretch was better and against harder competition. But there's no need to suggest this recent stretch has been better than that with stupid stats.

I've compiled the stats going back through the '02 season. We're currently in the midst of our best 65 game (chosen as a round number close to 5 modern seasons) stretch in that time period, playing .831 ball over the stretch. Assuming a win and a loss to close the season, we'd retain that .831. Two wins would put us at .846.

Prior to the current stretch, our high water mark for a 65 game stretch came in the three game runup to Stanford in the 2015 season, at .754. In this current run, we hit .754 against Georgia Tech last year, maintained it through the end of the regular season, and then dipped down to .723 after the Clemson and Bama losses.
