Can't really have it in St. Louis, since they host the Big XII tournement.

They've never held it in STL, you must be thinking of KC, 13/18 B12 tournies have been there.

Atlanta is the best place for SEC events if only because of location. NO is a great town but doesn't have near the numbers of, and diversity in, alumni that Atlanta does.

I'd imagine that border towns like Houston, being so far away from most SEC fans, would be out of the question.
