The city of Nashville would cover that and double it to host it.

Atlanta sucks, and there's no need to pretend otherwise.

Atlanta’s days of hosting every year are numbered

New Orleans is never to going to get the SEC title game.

These are indisputable facts.

Honest question, are you slow witted? I'd ask how you expect a game to be played in a venue when that venue isn't available? Can you let me know why the ACC has never played their football championship game in Atlanta?

RIP Atlanta SEC title game

RIP Nashville. It ain't gonna happen -- nevah.

Nashville doesn't have the bucks to compete with the ATL and don't you think for one millisecond that the ATL wouldn't put up the biggest fight anyone's ever seen if ANY other city were to try and lure the SEC title game away.

Atlanta's got a perm on this one.

BTW....Nashville's been receiving national attention to it's skyrocketing crime (some of the worst in the country), especially in the tourist areas of downtown and elsewhere. Granted, all cities are experiencing rising crime rates, but Nashville's one of the worst.

Plus...there's NOTHING to do in Nashville but sit and sip a beer inside a country honky-tonk and talk about how your cousin is trying to make it with your sister.

Cause they aren’t slow-witted.

It doesn’t suck, but there are probably 3-4 better options in the SEC footprint. Nashville being one of them.

So would the B12, B1G, and ACC. Don't fall for the trap.

Ah, avoiding answering the question. Thank you for confirming my suspicions.

And btw, your attempt at a clever retort doesn't even make sense. If the ACC was not slow-witted as you claim, meaning that they are smart or clever or whatever adjective you want to use, then they WOULD have played their game in atlanta at some point instead of playing in quarter full stadiums in orlanda, tampa, etc.

Nashville is fine and all but I don't think the SEC is going move the title game to your overgrown suburb most famous for being a bachelorette destination for Madisyn and the girls

No, they don’t. It’ll likely move around in the new SEC.

I love how a fan of a school not even in the league who registered a few months ago apparently knows more about how our conference operates than any of us.

Nobody outside folks who live near Atlanta cares. If Atlanta locks in a long term deal to host the ACC, that's fine with me. Do you really think that will hurt the SEC? Of course not. It will only hurt folks who live near Atlanta and don't want to travel to someplace else.

The world does not revolve around you.

No, I just don’t assume the ACC has more pull than the SEC or that it’s all or nothing. That’s too narrow-minded.

If the mighty SEC wanted a certain rotation guaranteed from Atlanta, they’d get it.

It has nothing to do with "pull" and everythign to do wiht money, just like every other aspect of CFB these days

that it’s all or nothing.


but it is. The only reason nobody else has played it in altnata is because that has not been an option because that's wehre the SEC's is. If the SEC were to leave, even if briefly or with the idea of a rotation, the ACC woudl pay literally anything it took to amke it their permanent home. The city of Altnat and espn/cbs/whoever don't GAF what league is playing there they only care abotu how mcuh they're gettin gpaid. They aren't going to say "well the SEC can do it this yera, and then the ACC can do it next year! Then everyone wins!" They're going to tell the SEC "hey you decided to leave on your own and someone else came in to fill it permanently, sorry"

Still waiting on the MLB expansion in Nashville so we can get the SEC Tourney out of Hoover.
