Even beyond record we were a better team this year than last.

That looked extremely true to me, though it is not as if being better than the 2019 team is a big accomplishment.

Various power rankings back that up.
Sagarin is one.
By his average rating Stanford was at #73 in 2019; #27 in 2020
By his "recent" score, which emphasizes how the finish the season, Stanford was #84 in 2019, #23 in 2020.
That's not close.
