    It should be at the Superdome every year because New Orleans > Atlanta every time, without exception. Who the **** wants to go to Atlanta?

    Maybe it should be in vandy since they will never play in that game.

    The only thing that MIGHT be close to a neutral field within SEC territory would probably be in Miami at this point, but it is still too close to FU fan as far as I am concerned.

    Since there truly is no neutral site in SEC territory, the game probably should be rotated. I just think that ATL was thrown a bone because we have the Sugar Bowl and BCS Title game (every 4 years).

    Rotate it to NFL venues within the SEC. Georgie Dome, Superdome, Tampa, Nashville. Maybe can consider adding Houston and STL with the arrival of aTm and Mizzou.

    ATL has the Labor Day Thing and whatever the Peach Bowl is now called and EVERY year... PLUS the SEC CG... so yeah it SHOULD be rotated; but I doubt we see that in our lifetime.

    They would throw a huge fit if that happened. It's locked in. The neutral site concept for this game is just a money-maker for the host city. It's like the LSU-ORE game to start the season. Sort of like an extra bowl game for Jerry, er, Dallas.

    Because the next logical step for the SEC is the Sugar Bowl, which is in New Orleans. Spreads the wealth.

    I thought I heard that in the Pac-12 the higher ranked team hosts the Championship game. That would be pretty awesome. I don't know if it would work for the SEC as it would make a huge advantage for the higher ranked team. Having the SECCG in Tiger Stadium sounds really nice though...
