The film footage of the 1947 Sugar Bowl on YouTube is exceptional in the realm of football history.

The video is about the 1947 Sugar Bowl Classic college football game between the Georgia Bulldogs and the North Carolina Tar Heels.
The game was played on January 1, 1947, in New Orleans, Louisiana, and was won by Georgia 20-10.
The video features highlights of the game, including Georgia's touchdown runs by Charley Trippi and Frank Sinkwich and North Carolina's touchdown pass from Jack Rogers to Kent Howell.
The video also includes commentary from sportscaster Bill Stern, who calls the game with his usual enthusiasm.
Here are some of the key highlights from the game:
Georgia took a 7-0 lead in the first quarter on a 67-yard run by Charley Trippi.
North Carolina tied the game at 7-7 in the second quarter on a pass from Jack Rogers to Kent Howell.
