Would be nice to give some of the teams on the Western edge of the conference the crowd advantage sometimes.
Exactly. All three times we have been we have been greatly outnumbered as well. UGA or Florida (our opponents) wouldn't be able to travel out to Dallas as well because Arkansas alumni in the area would buy up all the excess tickets very quickly if we played as opposed to Atlanta where we have a miniscule alumni presence.

They should rotate b/w ATL and NOLA every other year.

I can understand not wanting to be in NOLA because the SEC Champion usually goes there a month later. But it should open up Reliant in Houston and Jerry's place in Dallas to the SEC.

Valid point, but it's really unfair for Ark and LSU to have to travel to east teams backyard every time. Plus NOLA blows ATL out of the water for partying and such...really not even close.

Why Jacksonville? That only makes it even farther away for everybody but Florida. Not to mention, Jacksonville is a shite hole and playing outdoors in December would suck arse.

If you think this is bad, go check out A&M's page.

I would like to see it rotate yearly back and forth between the East and the West. Atlanta/Dallas or Houston.
This is assuming we start adding Texas/OK or Missouri schools to the SEC.
If there isn't any western expansion then we can leave it the way it is currently because I understand not going to NOLA and there is no way that I want to ever attend a game in Nashville in December ever again.

Here's another valid point. Arky has only done it 2 times in 18 yrs, and Lsu only 4 times in 18 years. It's not like it happens that often. Just be glad when yall can.

Since 2001, we have a combined 6 trips.

How many before that and since 2007?

ehh.....
Arkansas: 1995, 2002, 2006
LSU: 2001, 2003, 2005, 2007

We haven't been since 2007 and I think you can figure out how many before that. LSU and Arkansas both have a legitimate shot of going back this year. It's not as if neither team has never been.

my bad. 3 times for Arky. Still.. that's not like going every year, like it was made to sound. 3 out of 18 tries should just get a big thank you from yall instead of whining.

It is 7 out of 18. You need to include LSU in that cause we're on the western fringe and would also benefit from the game being played in Texas.
