but playing an SEC schedule is important to kids


I know, and I've acknowledged that playing for an SEC team is a good draw. But what's an even BETTER draw is winning titles. In the mid 2000s kids would rather play for USC than bama, despite bama being SEC and being a top 2 program of all time, because USC was in the title hunt every year.

Teams that we play against (and recruit against) every year winning titles is detrimental to UGA.

Your premise was flawed from the outset. Of course it is MOST important that your team win more than other teams they recruit against. But having those same teams win OOC improves your teams status.

Mizzou lost to South Carolina. But hey it was a damn good SC team. Just look at who they have beaten (forget the loss to Tennessee). I hope they win their bowl game. Same with Auburn. Same with Alabama. It elevates all of our strength of schedule. And it does carry over to the next year.

But then, it's easier for me to see because, as has been pointed out, the new guys are benefiting the most from the SEC dominance sales pitch.
