When Notre Dame takes on Georgia in the Sugar Bowl at Caesars Superdome on Thursday, the game will be played under the pall of the devastating events that occurred in New Orleans just a day prior.
The Sugar Bowl was postponed after a deadly truck attack on Bourbon Street during the city’s New Year’s Eve celebrations early Wednesday morning. ESPN’s Laura Rutledge reported that Georgia was sheltering in place at a team hotel the morning of the tragic event before the bowl organizers ultimately decided to push the game back to Thursday at 4 p.m. ET.
