Should the SECCG be moved out of Atlanta

[Gatorchip]

Maybe a neutral location between Arkansas and Missouri, to set them up for the 2020 SECCG.

Is there anything between their campuses? Perhaps a field or something like that? Wide roads?

Does anyone actually live there?

The Astro Dome says Hi.

The AstroDome isn't in Dallas. The BigXII championship isn't moving.

How many seats are needed? I think Huntsville is the place...right in the middle.

Georgia IS a trash state. Hell, it was established as the North American penal colony.

You said "hell". You also said "penal". Ha!

That's a nice geographical location, but probably not a great venue.

But if it's only Arkansas and Missouri, then that is more than enough seats. LOL like that would ever happen.

It's possible Arkansas could get there there, with the SEC West being such a shittorm this season. Bustrrow is going to the Bungles, Saban about to get hit with major violations... hell, even Kiffin could win the SEC West.

I find your false confidence amusing.

TBH, I couldn't care less where the BigXII plays their game...but it's incredibly unlikely that they leave.

Bama’s gonna have major violations? You got inside info? Hope you’re right

Georgia is a trash state. That's why the UF/UGAy game has been in Jax - we didn't want to send our squad to a third-world shithole.

However, we still have to venture into that ghetto to play the SECCG in 2020. The field is poorly kept, with players turning ankles on the shitty sod, and there's a real risk of crime in one of the nation's poorest states.

So, let's move it! Let's petition to move the game to:

Miami?
Nashville?
Charlotte?
NOLA?
Tampa?

What do you think??


I think it can only help the SEC to disassociate itself, where possible, from our shame.

Atlanta is probably the most idea Championship site in America for the league it caters to.

The SEC leads the nation every year in attendance and they have a 90,000 seat stadium located
within 400 miles of 8 of their schools. (That's 6 hours driving time. Their location almost
assures the league a sell-out for all of their title games. (You couldn't ask for anymore)
So Carolina...80K stadium...UF...89K stadium...Georgia 92K stadium...Alabama...102K
stadium...Auburn 87K stadium...Tennessee 102K stadium...Kentucky 70K stadium and
Vanderbilt 40K stadium...all within 6 hours driving time. They all have rabid fans...all travel
well. If 1/2 their fan base goes...the place is filled.

Just be thankful, you have a place like Atlanta to host the damn thing. I-75 is 16 lanes thru
downtown. Roads are excellent. Speed limits are ideal. Plenty of rooms and places to eat,
plus tha nation's busiest airport. What the hell do you want?

Indianapolis works pretty well for the BigTen as well.

There is a rumor going around something is coming. So that means it's probably complete BS.

Just consider the source.

It was an LSU insider....credibility confirmed.

And Saban has lost there once in 10+ games. I’m for playing EVERY major game there.

This is the time of year they get caught for cheating on last semester's final exams....which an Alibumma football player has never taken.

 

[Tin Man]

@JuiceTheGator, what has your tighty whities all twisted over Atlanta? It's gotta be more than parking tickets... Local cops do you wrong? Atlanta gays get your goat? Bad weather? Bad experience(s)?

 

[Tin Man]

Atlanta gets the SECCG because of location, venues, airport, Interstate highway intersect, hospitality capacity, restaurants, media facilities, et al. It's tough competition to other cities in the SEC footprint.

 

[ktg8trgrl]

Florida won’t be playing in the SECCG anytime soon, so it doesn’t matter to you really.

But I would be fine with a rotation, but that rotation would definitely include Atlanta

This will age well
