re: I'm doubling down on not just moving the SEC Championship game from Atlanta, but also HQ

New Orleans has a very long association with the SEC because of the Sugar Bowl.

Probably a big reason why the SECCG was given to first Birmingham and then Atlanta as it would have been silly to go to New Orleans twice in a month.

I think Atlanta is fine. The stadium there is world class. The city itself is adequate for stuff to do and it is basically the New York of the Southeast. Whatever Atlanta's shortcomings may be, it has served the SEC well as a championship host site. Why change that because some of you think it's an unfair advantage for some teams?

I love the Superdome but it is as old as I am. It is more than adequate but the main attraction with NOLA is the city, which hurricanes and politicians have yet to totally ruin but not for lack of trying.

On the topic of host sites that may be unfair, isn't having the CFP in the Superdome unfair when LSU is in the game? Do we really want to open that can of worms?

Things are fine the way they are.

frick No to Arlington for the SECCG. Let the Pigs and Aggy play their Super Bowl there.

I have no doubt Texas will try to move the game but they are one of 16 now and will soon enough figure out they don't hold anywhere near the same sway in the SEC.
