The betting line for the Sugar Bowl between Notre Dame and Georgia has changed.

Georgia has been a favorite going into the game and was recently a two-point favorite but the line has now swung in Notre Dame's favor. Notre Dame is now a one-point favorite heading into the game.

Notre Dame is now a consensus 1-point favorite over Georgia. Bulldogs had been favored by as much as -2 over last week.

The winner of this game will move on to play Penn State in the College Football Playoff semifinals. Penn State took down Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl on Tuesday night.

Notre Dame advanced to the quarterfinals of the CFP after beating Indiana by 10 (27-17) in the first round of the CFP. Georgia had an automatic bye to the quarterfinals after winning the SEC Championship.

Georgia won the SEC title over Texas after the two teams played an instant classic on December 7. The game went to overtime with Georgia winning by three, 22-19.

Texas still made the CFP and is also in the quarterfinals against Arizona State.

The jury is still out on whether the Sugar Bowl will be played on Wednesday night since a horrific tragedy occurred in New Orleans earlier Wednesday morning.

A man intentionally ran over a group of people in the French Quarter in New Orleans, killing 10 people and injuring many others. The suspect was killed after engaging in gunfire with New Orleans Police.

"The Sugar Bowl Committee is devastated by the terrible events from early this morning. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families. We are in ongoing discussions with authorities on the local, state, and federal levels and will communicate further details as they become available," the Sugar Bowl said in a statement.
