Georgia To Face Hawaii In Sugar Bowl; Richt Calls For A Black Out Of The Louisiana Superdome

The 5th-ranked Georgia Bulldogs will face the 10th-ranked Hawaii Warriors in the Allstate Sugar Bowl on January 1, 2008. The game will be broadcast by FOX at 8:30 p.m. EST. The Dawgs had hoped for a shot at the National Championship game, but were denied when LSU, Virginia Tech and Oklahoma each jumped them in the final BCS poll.

Yesterday, Mark Richt announced that the team will wear their black jerseys (UGA is the home team and gets the option) and they want the fans to Black Out the Superdome. Our Fan Shop has plenty of black UGA items in stock. Also on sale are the Official Black Sugar Bowl T-Shirts.
