Louisiana chief proposes further Sugar Bowl delay after devastating New Orleans terror attack Louisiana's attorney general has called for the Sugar Bowl to be delayed at least another day following the devastating terror attack in New Orleans.

'Not my decision, but I would like to see it delayed at least another day,' Murrill told NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt on Wednesday.
