The Georgia Bulldogs will be without several key players in the Sugar Bowl against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. A combination of transfers, suspensions and injuries means more than ten Georgia Bulldogs will miss the Sugar Bowl.

Georgia will have to do without starting quarterback Carson Beck against Notre Dame. In Beck’s place, the Bulldogs will use backup quarterback Gunner Stockton. He started the second half of the SEC Championship Game under center but has just 51 career pass attempts.
