Reality World- Natty should be moved to Atlanta permanently

That way it's about 2.50 hours from Clemson & 3 hours from Tuscaloosa and it would be a packed house every year. All of the ticket & airline stress would be greatly reduced.

odds are there will be at least one "local" team

since 10 of the last 11 Champs are within easy driving distance of ATL, chances are almost 100% you're GONNA get a local-interest sellout.

St. Louis. Closest big city to the center of the lower 48.

I'm surprised St. Louis hasn't pursued a kickoff weekend

college game - east / west sorta thing. Or a bowl game for that matter. They have a dome stadium and it's a cool place to visit for a sports fan.

Tons of cool places to visit & many are free...Big stadium stadium not getting used as I think the Blues have their own place (don't know or care about hockey). Still not much good football on the left coast on the college scene despite the talent in the Cali HS scene.

Airports if another team gets in. Flight prices wouldn't be so outrageous

Agreed - also home of College FB HOF... It would be great... Even Texas - Jerry’s World... It’s a huge stadium and DFW can support a huge crowd every year..

Clemson/whoever from the South tickets prices would be insane.

What they need to do is have the site dependent on the #1 & #2 seed geographic location. Split the difference for those schools or conference divisions footprint (if you have proper geographic divisions). Go ahead with traditional bowl pairings if specific #1 and #2 match the historic conference tie-ins.
Picking a site after the semis would be tough but the #1 & #2 would be easier a month + out. While not 100% easy as the current one, I think it would be feasible.
If the Rose Bowl keeps being left out... well tell the Pac12/aBuser10 to improve their quality of play.
But if I was lord-dictator, I would require natural surface/open air locations....

Or - Bama and CLEMSON could just do a home-and-home type of schedule for the Natty.

MONEY says it will never happen. If college baseball made

the obscene amounts of money that college football makes, it would not have a permanent home in OMAHA, of all places. The NCAsshat Association will continue to spread the wealth to fill the fat cats pockets. It's called Capitalism. Now, if Jerry wanted it bad enough, he could probably buy it.

Yea money talks! Why Omaha for Baseball, because it's in the center of the US of A.
