So because you're tired of it, we should move it?

Both of your crystal balls were won in the superdome. Don't think you had home field advantage vs. Okla/Ohio St?

Don't bite the hand that feeds you bro.

ATL is central to most people. Plus it is a city that has lots of night life and other attractions for the people going to the game. I dont think it will ever move.

This does not help your position.

the BCS CG is rotated. And, the 'homefield' is exactly what the OP is saying.



BTW, I am not in favor of the rotation idea. Not dead set against, but I see no need to do it. As was already stated, ATL is really set to host this kind of thing on last minute plans. Remember, sometimes, fans of teams do not know if they are going until the Saturday night BEFORE the game. There needs to be LOTS of air flight options.

Just the luck of the draw. The BCS Nat'l Championship isn't always played in New Orleans. If it were, this would be a reasonable argument.

As far as the Citrus, it's an old stadium, I agree, but I like Orlando hosting the SEC Championship every five years. Great city.

As far as Atlanta, it is a great to city to host the SEC Championship, but it shouldn't be the ONLY city.

The big difference is that they rotate the BCS national championship games. LSU has just been really fortunate that both of their national championship game victories were played in New Orleans.
