NEW ORLEANS -- Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman said his team met Wednesday morning after learning of the attack on Bourbon Street that killed 15 people and injured dozens more, working through the emotions after such a traumatic event but also still preparing to win a critical game.
"The first part of that meeting was to mourn and pray for our country," Freeman told ESPN's Scott Van Pelt on Wednesday's "SportsCenter." "But the end of the meeting was to redirect our focus to preparing for this game."
Notre Dame was set to play Georgia in a College Football Playoff quarterfinal at the Allstate Sugar Bowl on Wednesday night, but the game was rescheduled for 4 p.
