In a five-year stretch. Which school currently holds the (FBS/Div. I-A) record with 61 wins over a 5-year stretch?

Not quite that good, but almost.

The best they did then over a five-year stretch was 54-3. Keep in mind my question was about total # of wins, not necessarily best win percentage.

Has to have been "fairly" recent

Because That's more than 12 wins a year which would've been impossible pre conference championship game.
I know Nebraska had a great run starting around 1993, At the time it was referenced as one of the best runs ever, so that'll be my guess.

Only teams (that I can find) with 60 wins over 5 years:
Nov 8, 2013, 11:31 AM
|
|
Boise St., 2006-2010 (61-5)
Alabama, 2008-2012 (61-7)
Oklahoma, 2000-2004 (60-7)
Nebraska, 1993-1997 (60-3)
I should have originally said that Alabama is currently tied for the most wins, with 61 over the five years previous to this one.

I am most impressed with Nebraska's

60 and 3 though. One less win in 3-5 less chances.
Also 10 wins doesn't mean a hill of beans these days when it can be achieved with 4 losses.
