It's one of the most expensive annual tickets in all of sports. ~90% of the SEC's fans are within a weekend drive of it. They probably didn't even consider any other locations before resigning the contract.

Also, New Orleans is farther from Columbia than Atlanta and Nashville is only slightly shorter from College Station than Atlanta.

This has never been up for debate. SEC was not going to let the ACC sign a permanent contract instead of them.

Add in the CFB HoF construction, and the new dome in a few years, worlds biggest airline hub & convention-city style lodging, I can't believe the opposition can't see the writing on the wall .

The game will never leave Atlanta while this conference exists.
