Not even sure what you are talking about with cases after reopening. Make shite up much?
Maybe the #1 news source in the state of A1abana (A1.com) can help you understand:
quote:

A1abana hit an all-time high this week in its seven-day average of new COVID-19 cases, as the state neared the two-week mark since Gov. Kay Ivey reopened most businesses.

“We’ve had this week a couple of the highest days we’ve seen in number of cases, and that’s certainly concerning to us,” said State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris (Dr. means doctor) on Thursday. New cases topped 400 on Thursday for the fifth time in the last seven days.
quote:

Restaurants, bars and entertainment venues were allowed to open on May 11, but that reopening has been followed by a steady rise in new cases.

dO yOu uNdErStAnD nOwWw?

Another shutdown is mentioned in that article. That would not bode well for athletics in your “unhealthy” state.

Possible cities to host SECCG, imo:

St. Louis
Nashville
Jacksonville
Tampa
Orlando
New Orleans
Houston
San Antonio

Dallas - No as it is home to the Big XII
Kansas City - No as it is a Big XII city

Kansas City Missouri is SEC but as much as I would like it here it's not what's best for the league. I say put it in Nashville.

How does breaking into the College Football Hall Of Fame and stealing personal memorabilia from someone who wasn't involved do to help enact social change?

Not a good idea considering this:

We just don’t have the excellent leadership in Alabama that Louisiana has in John Bel Edwards. Edwards has led Louisiana so well that they’ve had more than 2x as many cases as Alabama, despite a smaller population. Very impressive!

What do any of those cities have to offer that Atlanta doesn't?

Should rotate a few sports venues in SEC states.
4 year rotation in cities that could accommodate fan bases and have a rich history that would be fun to visit

Location 1) Atlanta
Location 2) New Orleans
Location 3) Dallas or Houston
Location 4) Orlando? Would love Nashville but December outside is bad idea.

The first 3 locations seem like slam dunks though.

Should they build something to rival ATL or Jerry's World than yes, I'd be all for it!


I’ve been saying this for years. Nola needs a modern stadium but there’s nowhere to build that would be near downtown and the FQ. North shore would be a good option but too far.

Seriously, the best place for this game is College Station Texas

1) will always be a neutral site as aggy will never be in the game.
2) will never be riots there.
3) will be the only real thing that College Station can be proud about.
4) less than a 2 hour drive from 5 major airports in Houston (2), Dallas (2), and Austin
5) has a landscaped scenic environment


6) has a nice restaurant , Dixie Chicken.



7) has very friendly people

8) has my vote

Wrong.

It's the best venue and the most accessable city.

Superdome is a dump that needs to be demolished.

The stadium in Orlando is fairly small, right? Why not Tampa or Jacksonville instead.

Rotate it between Knoxville and Baton Rouge


Pretty simple solution - rotate between Oxford, Nashville, College Station, and Lexington. Guaranteed nobody gets a home field advantage.

Nashville could be a little cool in December but great town. If I had a dog in the fight Nashville would be my bet.

Atlanta is the buckle of the South’s Blue Belt. If the SEC moves out and the ACC moves in, there will be a power shift in recruitment of that region over time. It would be insane to give up that advantage.
