Baylor QB Charlie Brewer will play in Sugar Bowl

Baylor quarterback Charlie Brewer has officially been cleared by his coach to play in the 2020 Allstate Sugar Bowl against Georgia football.

Baylor University head coach Matt Rhule met with the media on Friday leading up to the Wednesday night Sugar Bowl matchup against Georgia.

Rhule’s starting quarterback Charlie Brewer left the Big-12 championship game in the 2nd quarter on concussion protocol, but Rhule confirmed he has been cleared to play on New Years Day.

Brewer has had an excellent season, throwing for 2,950 yards, 20 TDs and only 6 INTs on a 65.2 completion percentage.  Brewer has also rushed for 337 yards and 10 TDs and will be vital for the Bears going up against the Dawgs defense.

Kickoff for the 2020 Allstate Sugar Bowl is set for 8:45 p.m. on January 1st at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.
