I hate to stick up for the acc, but are you really so dense to think the acccg would only sell 40k seats in the dome? There's a major reason it's attendance is so laughably bad, and that reason would disappear were it in Atlanta.

bullshite. The reason is because it is an ACC neutral site game. No matter where they play it the attendance will be awful. Their bell cow football team doesnt even sell out and travel for the national championship. Conversely, you could play the SEC championship on the moon and it would sell out

To further my point, Atlanta didnt make the SEC Championship the center of college football, conversely, the SEC championship made Atlanta feel like the center. I find it laughable that you think Atlanta has some mythical football aura about it

well you're kind of an idiot if you think that. FSU/GT last year, outside in december, sold 64K tickets. You don't think they would have filled up the dome?

Obviously, your dukes and WF's aren't going to be a draw, and never will be. But if you don't think they could sell 75+ seats at an indoor dome in atlanta for some combo of FSU/gt/clemson/VT/miami you're insane.
