It is in no way the geographic center of the conference.


The historic center, yes.

The best would be Nashville or Birmingham if either had the facilities and travel access that Atlanta does. Part or the break up of the SoCon into the SEC / ACC / SWC was the issue of travel via roads and trains. If this were 100 years ago and the L&N would be ATL today, Nashville would be ideal. In terms of cities I like to visit, Nashville and NOLA would be my preference but neither have the logistics.


Also, with the B12 being demoted to G5 status in a few years the ACC will get stronger so no way we want to give that to the ACC.

Nashville has 38,000 hotel rooms and is building a dome.

Where does this often repeated falsehood come from? Nashville can handle a home NFL game and a home NHL game at the same time but can't handle an SECCG? Nashville can handle >250,000 for CMA Fest for a week every year but doesn't have the logistics for a college football game?

New Orleans host Mardi Gras Super Bowl and several festivals that draw hundreds of thousands of people. What logistics NO can’t handle.
