Breaking: Sugar Bowl Postponed
The College Football Playoff quarterfinal game at the 2025 Sugar Bowl has been postponed after at least 10 people were killed and more than 30 people were injured early Wednesday morning in New Orleans when an armed man drove a pickup truck into a large crowd on Bourbon Street in a deadly attack.
Jeff Hundley, Sugar Bowl committee CEO, announced that the game will now be played on Thursday night after consultation with officials from all parties involved. "All agree it's in the best interest of everybody and public safety that we postpone the game for 24 hours," Hundley told reporters.
The CFP No. 2 seed Georgia and No. 7 seed Notre Dame were originally scheduled to kick off at 8:45 p.m. ET on Wednesday in the Sugar Bowl game. The winner still advances to face No. 6 seed Penn State in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 9 as part of the CFP semifinals.
“There’s just too much stuff we don’t know. It’s just not worth it,” Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) said during a news conference with state, city and law enforcement officials, addressing the decision to postpone the game.

and yet I read an UNCOMFIRMED report that tied the vegas bomber to the nawlins dip shit. something about they were both at the same military base at the same time, both rented their vehicles from the same company, and there were 1 or 2 more connections. not sure if its true or not, but if true it sure makes the FBI look incompetent once again.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?
