re: SECCG Location Move

I disagree that it should be moved. It is easily apparent that the SEC is THE most successful Conf Championship game and I think the central location and consistency of location is a big part of that.
However, there are a few tweaks I would like to see. I would like to see a move to provide MORE tickets to each school to create a little more balance in attendance. Right now I believe each team gets 17,500 tickets. I would like to see that number pushed to at least 25,000 to create more even crowds. I think that solves 95% of the problems that most people have with the home field advantage.
Also, I honestly don't think as a fan base we have any reason to complain about the # of fans in the SECCG. In '07 tons of people cancelled plans on attending after we lost to Arkansas and it looked like we had no NC shot. This year I know a bunch of people that bought SECCG tickets that didn't make the trip to save money for the NC game. I understand financial restraints, and I understand being more motivated for the BIG prize, but don't complain about being out numbered when a lot of our fans don't place a huge importance on attending the game.
