Yup, in 2024 we get to play Michigan, OU, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, and Texas A&M. I'm looking forward to it.

Any blowback from the CCG remaining in Atlanta ?  Nashville and Dallas were mentioned as wanting to host. Is this like the CWS always being in Omaha every year type deal?

My guess is it goes to whoever has the money.  I think spreading it around would be fine even though I personally like having it here.

I think having the CFB HoF next door is an edge, and Atlanta usually has OK weather outside relative to Nash/Dallas.

Does the weather matter much when the game is played inside a dome?  

I’m sure that Florida, Texas, and other locations would be just as good.

I think the weather outside relates to fan comfort if they like walking around a bit.  Indy a couple years back was fine in the dome but the weather outside likely precluded some festivities.

I don't think the SECCG would move unless there was drama with Atlanta.

I don't think the SECCG would move unless there was drama with Atlanta. 

SEC Leadership brought A&M and eventually Texas into the conference for a reason.  Many SEC programs already sell out a game per year for a chance to play OOC opponents at neutral sites in Dallas and Houston.  It's obvious, that there's some real recruiting value in occasionally playing the SECCG within the borders of the state of Texas.

I'm not saying it's definitely going to happen or that it should happen or that I wish it to happen, but from a business standpoint, it's a slam dunk.  And since the primary purpose of CCGs is to generate value for the conference members, I'd be pretty surprised if it doesn't eventually happen, every now and then.

Yeah, ATL is pretty far east in the SEC map of course, and has been for a while.  I agree at some point it will shift to Dallas a time or three.

a jerryworld/atl rotation makes perfect sense and i think will eventually happen.  nashville only if they build a dome.

Did anybody see the Netflix Johnny Football documentary?  No real surprises there.  He partied his way through college, partied his way out of NFL.  Massive addiction problems.  Personal problems.  Frankly I was kinda relieved that it didn't really put A&M in too bad a light, but it's obvious A&M looked the other way on a bunch of stuff ( as does every school I think).
