And other times you aren't. You aren't recruiting exclusively against other SEC teams...

The times that we aren't, let's say we're in the final 2 with virginia tech, we are only trying to make us look better than that other team. So what auburn (for instance, since they are in the title) does doesnt' matter in your scenario. Whether they win or they lose it wouldn't matter. So if it's a wash, why should I want them to win?

A pitch you make to kids is your history. We've won x amount of titles. We've been to x amount of BCS bowls, we've done this and we've won that. If the other schools you're competing against have more of that stuff, it makes them more desirable. Auburn racking up another national title isn't going to help UGA in recruits' living rooms.
