I voted for the NC win because simply put, I want an NC every year and to me, that is the ULTIMATE success and that's the way I'd say the program looks at it as well.
Not that going to the NC and losing isn't a wonderful season. I just think the great programs shoot for and have NC aspirations every year with the championship victory being the ultimate goal (which IMO equals success).

I saved my vote until tonight. Championship game loser = successful season.
