Since 2007, we have the third best winning percentage in the country when holding a lead in the 4th quarter. UCLA is one (49-1, .980 win percentage) Oregon is two (77-3, .963). We are 49-2 in that situation, a .961 win percentage. I know one of those two losses was last year at Auburn. Can't think of the other one.

Think it was South Carolina in 2011. Weren't we up 10-7 when they scored on the jump ball to Jeffrey? I think that was in the 4th quarter when they scored.

We were tied with SC into the 4th in 2011...

That's the only other example in the Mullen era...

ETA Other one looks like 2008 Kentucky...

I think the stat was leading at any point in the fourth quarter, not just entering the fourth quarter with the lead.
