Georgia and new head coach Mike White will square off with Notre Dame at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Ga., and the game will tipoff at 5:30pm ET.
“I’m extremely excited that we’ll be participating in this year’s Holiday Hoopsgiving, which has quickly become a premier event,” White said. “As the University of Georgia, we’re excited to be play in Atlanta at an NBA arena. On top of all that, the opponent pulls at some heart strings with me because all I wanted to be growing up was a Notre Dame football player. My father had a great run as the Athletic Director at Notre Dame, and I know he considers Mike Brey one of the best hires he ever made. On top of that, my brother Danny loved playing for Coach Brey at Notre Dame.”
