It’s been five years since the Arizona Wildcats last had a five-game winning streak, opening the 2014 season with a 5-0 record. The streak was actually six, as they beat Boston College in the AdvoCare V100 Bowl the previous December.
That 2014 team went on to win the Pac-12’s South Division title, though not without some good fortune both from themselves and other teams. That 5-0 start included the Hill Mary comeback win over Cal, while later in the season a 27-26 home win over Washington that was aided by the Huskies fumbling with 1:23 left while trying to run out the clock.
