Georgia and Notre Dame are two of the most historic programs in college football. Here's how the Bulldogs have fared in past matchups:

NEW ORLEANS -- The final game of the College Football Playoff Quarterfinals will determine the last spot in the final four, as the Georgia Bulldogs and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish duke it out in the Sugar Bowl on New Year’s Day. Where: Caesars Superdome (New Orleans, La.)

If Georgia playing Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl has a classic ring to it, it should. A national championship hung in the balance when a freshman running back named Herschel Walker helped the 1980 Bulldogs capture a national title by beating the Fighting Irish 17-10 in the Sugar Bowl.

Yet, the No. 7 Fighting Irish (12-1) will face their stiffest test of the year with a matchup against No. 2 Georgia (11-2) in the Sugar Bowl at Caesars Superdome in the College Football Playoff quarterfinal at 8:45 p.m. ET New Year's Day in New Orleans.

Riley Leonard’s improvement in the passing game will be a key part of Notre Dame’s game plan against Georgia in the College Football Playoffs.

When quarterback Riley Leonard transferred from Duke to Notre Dame for the 2024 season, he immediately went to work building chemistry with his new teammates.
