I'm not sure if you meant Nashville is closer to New Orleans than Nashville is to Atlanta
or
New Orleans is closer to Nashville than New Orleans is to Atlanta.
Whichever it is, they are both incorrect.

With the growth of the neutral site games that means season ticket holders get 1 less home game for their ever growing "donations"
Tennessee will still play 7 home games as well as the game in Nashville.

Nothing against Nashville, but "incredible" is a strong word. Comparing Nashville to New Orleans is apples to oranges, boss.
Well you're talking about a guy who thinks Atlanta sucks and Cleveland is awesome.

Id be way more excited about a Nashville game than an Atlanta game.
Me too. I just got up and moved here three weeks ago.

That makes plenty of sense, what with the literacy and refinement.

I would think Louisville, Virginia Tech, Ohio St, Cincinnati, Clemson, Maryland and West Virginia are just a few schools that would be ideal for the game.
All respectable names to throw out there, but how realistic are each?
Louisville, heading to the ACC and already has Governor's Cup with Kentucky (home and home and best selling ticket as is)
Virginia Tech, possible, but Chick Fil A is more established
Ohio State, good on paper but the Buckeye's are not known for scheduling SEC schools
Cincinnati, probably most likely but they may want home and home in Paul Brown
Clemson, possible, but like Virginia Tech they will want Atlanta market first
Maryland, interesting, especially if it was UK as the SEC team
West Virginia, probably best with Vols, but Neyland holds more and is closer
Looking at your list makes me think of 2 teams that might do Nashville
Memphis
Michigan State

I understand why they have these kickoff classics but would prefer to play these games on campus. I traveled to Norman, Durham and State College to watch Bama play and all three were much better trips than Atlanta. Traveling to an out of conference school is awesome.
