Why Houston isn’t in the south.

Maybe Nashville, Atlanta, and Charlotte

Houston is just a bigger, shittier version of Atlanta.

DFW is a FAR better destination city than either. But still not a good option for SEC Championship due to geography.

Of any city should be added to the rotation, it should be Nashville, or somewhere in Florida with resorts and beaches.

If we're going to alternate, I'd rather go:

Atlanta
Nashville
New Orleans

Then I'd be okay considering Houston

Houston's bigger, but those cities have more... well, flavor to them (for lack of a better term).

Destination city?

Everybody in Texas outside of the metroplex thinks that Dallas sucks arse. Get out some.

Lol, I get out plenty. And I am not a native Texan, so I don't have any deep connection to any Texas city. From an outsider's perspective DFW >>>>>>>> Houston. But the reality is there are no good destination cities in Texas. DFW is just the least bad option by a pretty wide margin.

Nashville or a beach city in Florida are easily the best options in the SEC footprint. Atlanta sucks, but has the nice stadium and is centrally located. So it pretty much wins by default.

Rotating is a good idea.

Indoor venues only is a good idea.

But, more locations is better to break up monotony and get additional exposure. I would prefer Dallas and ATL to Houston. But, think it a mistake to constrain options to even those two. Lots of other options regionally, even if a stretch from strictly SEC country.

This may be a minority opinion, but I like St. Louis, and they have an empty dome near the Arch looking for a major sporting event. Again, wouldn't be a great regular venue, but worth a trip to make for a more unique experience occasionally.
