The 1974 Sugar Bowl was the 41st edition of the Sugar Bowl, a college football bowl game traditionally held in New Orleans, Louisiana. It was played on New Year's Eve at the conclusion of the 1974 NCAA Division I football season and featured the #8 ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers of the Big Eight Conference and the #18 ranked Florida Gators of the Southeastern Conference. Both teams featured stout defenses, and at the end of three quarters, the underdog Gators held a 10–0 lead over the favored Huskers, who had committed five turnovers up to that point. However, Nebraska relied on its strong running game in the final period to rally for a 13–10 win, the program's first Sugar Bowl victory.[3][4][5]

The 1974 Sugar Bowl was the last played at Tulane Stadium, which also hosted the Super Bowl for the final time just twelve days later. The Sugar Bowl moved indoors to the new Louisiana Superdome for the 1975 edition.
