Where should it be hosted?

Keep in mind they have a lot more flexibility because no fans.

Legion field would be pretty cool due to historical relevance.

Honestly, a high school stadium in bum frick nowhere MS or AL would be SEC as hell and be hilarious.

Rotate between three locations: Atlanta, New Orleans, and Nashville.

You don’t want more football?

I guess I didn’t think about the SECCG either.
If we make it that far, will we even be able to play im Atl? Is the cost for the stadium worth it with no fans?

Also with the 2 extra league games, does a West vs East matchup even make sense?

You dont think the Atlanta stadium would look a little sad without fans?

Honestly, I think that there should be at least a 2-round conference playoff regularly. Why? Well, if your in a say, 12-team, or even 14-team conference like the SEC, if you lose 1 game, your OK, but 2 games, your most likely screwed. Yes, I get, it's an 8-10 game season, but I think a 8-2, or 6-2 team is still a good football team.

I'd like to see the SEC try out a simple 2-round playoff. Take the top 2 teams in each division at the end of the regular season, and have them play a Division Championship at whoever finished 1st. Winners advance to the SEC Championship.

In my own dream universe, however, I'd have the SEC run a 6-team playoff. Take the top 3 teams in each division. 1st place teams get a bye to the Semifinals. 2nd place hosts 3rd place in the Quarterfinals. Quarters & Semis are held at campus sites, Conference Championship remains in Atlanta. (Note this would also involve ramping up the conference games to 10, because let's face it, usually 2 of the games SEC teams play in a standard 12-game season usually end in a blowout.)
