Sugar Bowl  < 2006  2008 >

The 2007 Allstate Sugar Bowl Game was a college football bowl game, which formed part of the 2006–2007 Bowl Championship Series (BCS) of the 2006 NCAA Division I-BS football season. Played on January 3, 2007, in the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans, it was the 73rd Sugar Bowl. The game matched the 2006 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team against the 2006 LSU Tigers football team and was televised on Fox.

This game received extra attention because it was the return of the Sugar Bowl to New Orleans. In 2006, the game was played at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina to the Superdome. LSU won the 2007 contest 41–14, tying the Notre Dame-LSU series at 5–5.

With the loss, Notre Dame lost a record-setting nine bowl games in a row,^[1] including losing their three BCS bowl games by wide point margins.^[1]
