In Tennessee that would be Cookville, population 32k and located 80 miles east of Nashville or 80 miles west of Knoxville. It is also about 90 miles north of Chattanooga and 280 miles east of Memphis.
Tennessee Tech stadium with capacity of 16k host all nine title games.

Rotated between Vaught Hemingway and Davis Wade Stadium. Two very nice and the best sports facilities in the state of Mississippi.
But recently our dumb politicians catered to USMs whining so now their Tennessee Tech level stadium is added to the rotation....

Tuscaloosa and Auburn have been alternating for a while now. The Super 6 used to be held at Legion Field for a little while I think.

Yeah before our rotation which I think started around 2012(I don't remember exactly). We played at Veterans Memorial Dump in Jackson exclusively. That place is outdated and hasn't been worked on since the Egg Bowl was held there. Doesn't look much worse than the Mississippi Coliseum in Jackson either....

In fairness neither Starkville or Oxford are close proximity to the coast. Your not going to sell out any of the college stadiums for MS hs football

Lucas Oil Stadium
My HS got so close to the title game last year.
Not bad for a little town though

Usually in the Citrus Bowl; occasionally in the Swamp.

What they should have done is play Div 1, 3, and 5 at one and Div 2, 4, and 6 at the other and rotate between even and odd.

I know that. And I get geography. But for the HS kids, most of them will never make a SEC roster and you're giving them the opportunity to play in a SEC Stadium. That's something nice I know I wouldn't forget, and I would just hate it if the one year I make the State Championship, I end up in a CUSA Stadium. But it's not the biggest of deals I suppose....

Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium in Jackson isn't bad either and has to be close to or just ahead of MSU for seating. But, it is in Jackson, so there is that.
That said, its Hs football, so 60k seating is almost counterproductive in terms of enhancing the atmosphere with fans in the stands.
The Rock at USM is a great football venue. Tremendous facility and holds probably half of VHS. Not a bad idea to move it around, imo.

We used to play our last JFL game as kids in the RCA Dome. Was in Indy the other day at the childrens museum.
