NEW ORLEANS — Officials have postponed the 2025 Sugar Bowl in New Orleans between Georgia and Notre Dame in wake of the deadly attack on Bourbon Street.

District Attorney of Orleans Parish Jason Williams told ABC News that the game will be played on Thursday at 3 p.m. instead of Wednesday night.

“As of right now, it’s only being postponed one day,” Williams said.

The decision to postpone comes just hours after the Federal Bureau of Investigation says a man intentionally crashed into a crowd on Bourbon Street around 3:15 a.m. local time Wednesday.
