Mark Richt is tired of talking about where to play the Georgia-Florida game.

At the SEC spring meetings in Destin, Richt was asked what he believes is best for the future of the game, which has been played in Jacksonville all but two years since 1933.

"Here's the deal — I don't know the answer to that, and I'm not going to answer any questions on that because every time I say something it becomes a much bigger deal than it is," Richt said, according to The Palm Beach Post.

"All I can tell you is somebody asked me awhile back, 'Do I think it's neutral?' I said, 'I really don't think it's neutral, no,' but everybody is wanting to make a big stink about, 'Should we change the game?' and all that. I don't care where we play the game, quite frankly."

The contract with Jacksonville runs through the 2010 game.

The Atlanta Sports Council wants the game in the Georgia Dome once out of every four years.

At a recent Bulldog Club meeting in Columbus, Richt said: "It's played in a stadium that [used to be called] the Gator Bowl. I wouldn't feel bad having a 'neutral site' game in Georgia — in the Georgia Dome."
