You suggest moving the South Eastern Conference Championship to Tejas? Fudge it if we're going west why not Hawaii

Have it in Tampa or Miami.

I agree, Atlanta has gone to shite, and I’m from ATL metro.

Nashville doesn't have an indoor stadium, and average temps there are in the 40s in early December. Lot of soft SEC fans out there that couldn't handle that type of weather

To be seriously considered Nashvegas will have to build a indoor stadium preferably a retractable roof so when the weather is nice it can be open.I was at the 91 SEC Championship Bama/Florida @Legion Field & it was cold as frick.I knew then it needed to be indoors during that time of the yr.

That and the fact that it's a natural grass field and it usually has to be resodded around Novemberfrom the wear and tear.

Property tax in Nashville went through the roof when the current stadium was built in ‘99. Considering Mayor Keisha Bottoms light (John Cooper) just fricked Nashville property owners with a 34% tax dick, ain’t no way they could get funding for a stadium.

Hell, 10 years ago the Titans started lobbying for either improvements to the current stadium or a new one. Little progress was made.

It should move back to Birmingham once UAB's downtown stadium is complete. Sure it will only seat 45,000 people, but more and more people are starting to stay at home and watch football games anyway.

Define "worst". You had some jerk plant a bomb to kill people & it's their fault.

Granted, I'll give a huge WTF? to "Izzy" & would have loved to see Greece host the 100 year old event. But other than that.....

FYI, I worked @ beach vb those Games.

I wasn't being serious. Anyone who suggests the SEC Championship Game should move from Atlanta to Nashville - an open air stadium in December at that latitude - is being just as serious in my opinion.

Seriously we removed our flag. Move it to the Mississippi gulf coast and play at Gulfport high. No brainer

It's because they feel sorry for New Orleans, that's it, the welfare baby of sports cities ...
