A defeat for one of the two biggies: that is rare - wow!
Can you clinch the title, or better yet: remain unbeaten in the league and clinch the title - Don't know if that would be a first for Rangers, or at all in Scotland...

Yes, Celtic losing is very rare indeed. I suppose some flowers to Aberdeen would be in order.
I'd actually envisioned that BOTH could have gone through an unbeaten season, having done it this far into the season. That would have been awesome IMO, to have two unbeaten teams in the league, with something as rare as an undefeated runner-up. I suppose it could still happen, if Celtic go all the way, but it does look like the title is mine to lose at this point.
From what I can tell, an unbeaten season has happened 4 times in Scotland.
1897/98; Celtic, P18, W15, D3.
1898/99; Rangers, P18, W18.
2016/17; Celtic, P38, W34, D4.
2020/21; Rangers, P38, W32, D6.
Once again cancelling each other out, but this season could make Rangers lead in this regard.
