Hell, "Atlanta" is a synonym for "SEC Title Game" both amongst SEC fans, players and coaches and the national media. Atlanta is one of the elite 5-6 cities in the country in hosting huge sports events.

They aren't moving it.

Zero percent chance they play that game outside in one of the older NFL venues in a city that gets cold in December.

Not happening.

When Nashville builds a dome, then they can move it here.

I think they should alternate between ATL and NO. When the West team is the home team, it should be in NO. When the East team is the home team, it should be in ATL. I'm kind of tired of every damn SEC thing being either in Atlanta or Birmingham.

ATL is the perfect place for it. And you people saying Dallas or KC need your heads checked.

The only SEC things in Birmingham are Media Days and the Baseball Tournament.

The basketball tournament rotates between Nashville, Atlanta, New Orleans, Tampa, etc.

Besides, what other conference talks about the host city of their championship game as a synonym for the championship game?

"Ha Ole Miss has never been to Atlanta"
"They have a shot to get to Atlanta if they win this game"
"If they can find a way to get to Atlanta I like their odds"

I know you've probably wasted a lot of money seeing Ole Miss in Atlanta.

Atlanta is the ideal situation...let it go.

Let's be honest, the venue needs to be accessible to the following schools

- Alabama
- Auburn
- LSU
- Georgia
- Florida
- South Carolina
- Tennessee
- Mizzou

Mizzou doesn't count because they are our pledge and the Georgia Dome is by far the most localized stadium for the others as a group.

It's settled.

You are the SEC's pledge pipe down or we'll send you back to the league without a conference championship game.

In 3 years Atlanta will have a stadium as good or better than Jerry World that is actually in the middle of a city and not in the middle of a random large parking lot/suburb.

Also it will actually be close to the majority of SEC schools.

And finally, it will be in the South.
