The '''Peach Bowl''' is an annual [[college football]] [[bowl game]] played annually in [[Atlanta]], Georgia, since December 30, 1968.

The first three Peach Bowls were played at [[Bobby Dodd Stadium|Grant Field]] on the [[Georgia Institute of Technology|Georgia Tech]] campus in Atlanta. Between 1971 and 1992, [[Atlanta–Fulton County Stadium]] hosted the game. From 1993 to 2016, the game was played at the [[Georgia Dome]]. The bowl then moved to [[Mercedes-Benz Stadium]] starting in 2017. Since 1997, it has been sponsored by [[Chick-fil-A]] and is officially known as the '''Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl'''. From 2006 to 2013, it was named the '''Chick-fil-A Bowl'''.

From its beginning, the Peach Bowl often featured teams from the [[Atlantic Coast Conference]] (ACC) and the [[Southeastern Conference]] (SEC). Between 1993 and 2013, the ACC and SEC established official tie-ins with the bowl game.

In [[2014 NCAA Division I FBS football season|2014]], the Peach Bowl, along with the "[[New Year's Six]]" bowls, became a part of the [[College Football Playoff]]. As part of the four team playoff from 2014 to [[2023 NCAA Division I FBS football season|2023]], the Peach Bowl served as a semifinal game in [[2016 Peach Bowl|2016]], [[2019 Peach Bowl|2019]], and [[2022 Peach Bowl|2022]].

With the expansion of the College Football Playoff to twelve teams in the [[2024 NCAA Division I FBS football season|2024–25 season]], the Peach Bowl serves as either a quarterfinal or semifinal each season. It served as a quarterfinal in [[2025 Peach Bowl|January 2025]] and will serve as a semifinal in January 2026. When serving as a semifinal, the game will be played a week after New Year's Day.<ref>{{Cite web |title=About the 12-Team College Football Playoff Format |url=https://collegefootballplayoff.com/sports/2024/5/29/12-team-format.aspx |access-date=2024-12-27 |website=College Football Playoff |language=en}}</ref>

The winner of the bowl game is awarded the ''George P. Crumbley Trophy'', named after the game's founder, [[George Crumbley]].

==History==
The Peach Bowl was approved by the [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|NCAA]] on May 1, 1968.<ref name=hauck>{{cite news |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-atlanta-constitution-lions-given-oka/175379738/ |title=Lions Given Okay On Grid Bowl Here |first=Allen |last=Hauck |newspaper=[[The Atlanta Constitution]] |page=1 |date=May 2, 1968 |accessdate=June 26, 2025 |via=newspapers.com}}</ref> The game was created to serve as a fundraiser for the Georgia Lighthouse for the Blind Foundation, a project of the [[Lions Clubs]] of Georgia.<ref name=hauck/> Creation of the bowl is credited to Lions Club member [[George Crumbley|George Pierre Crumbley Jr.]], known as the "Father of the Peach Bowl", who shepherded it through NCAA certification.<ref name=Legacy-6924241>{{cite web |url= https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/atlanta/name/george-crumbley-obituary?id=6924241 |title= George Crumbley Jr. Obituary |publisher= Legacy.com |date= September 2009 }}</ref><ref name=PRnw-300195480>{{cite news |url= https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/georgia-lions-lighthouse-foundation-celebrates-47-year-partnership-with-chick-fil-a-peach-bowl-300195480.html |title= Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation Celebrates 47-Year Partnership with Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl |date= 21 December 2015 |author= Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation }}</ref> While the Peach Bowl has been described as "the nation's first charity bowl",<ref name=Legacy-6924241/> it was predated by other such games, such as the [[Pythian Bowl]] (1949–1951).

In 1986, following years of lackluster attendance and revenue, the Peach Bowl was taken over by the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.chick-fil-apeachbowl.com/bowl/bowl-history/|title=History|date=2015-08-12|website=Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl|access-date=2018-12-15|archive-date=2018-10-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181020011520/http://www.chick-fil-apeachbowl.com/bowl/bowl-history/|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Seven of the first ten meetings (all but the 1968, 1971, and 1974 games) pitted an [[Atlantic Coast Conference]] (ACC) team against an at-large opponent.  The bowl had no automatic berths prior to 1993, but usually featured an ACC team or a team from the [[Southeastern Conference]] (SEC). From 1993 until 2013, the game matched an SEC team against one from the ACC. From 1993 to 2005, this matchup was the third selection from the ACC against the fourth from the SEC.

[[Chick-fil-A]], a fast food restaurant chain based in nearby [[College Park, Georgia|College Park]], has sponsored the game since 1997.  From 2006 until 2013, Chick-fil-A's contract gave it full naming rights and the game was referred to as the '''Chick-fil-A Bowl''' as a result. Funds from the sponsorship deal were used to increase payouts for the participating teams. In response, from 2006 to 2014, the ACC gave the committee the first pick of its teams after the [[Bowl Championship Series|BCS]]—usually the loser of the [[ACC Championship Game]] or one of the division runners-up. Also from 2006, the bowl got the fifth overall selection from the SEC (including the BCS). However, the BCS took two SEC schools in every season for the last nine years of its run, leaving the Chick-Fil-A with the sixth pick from the conference—usually one of the division runners-up.

In 2007, the Chick-fil-A Bowl became the best-attended non-BCS bowl for the previous decade.{{cn|date=June 2025}} According to ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'', although the bowl generated $12.3 million in profit in 2007, only $5.9 million of that was paid out to the participating schools.<ref>Murphy, Austin, and Dan Wetzel, "Does It Matter?", ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'', 15 November 2010, p. 45.</ref> In October 2009, the bowl extended the ACC contract through 2013.{{cn|date=June 2025}} As of 2013, the bowl had been sold out for 17 straight years, the second-longest streak behind only the [[Rose Bowl Game]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chick-fil-abowl.com/PressBox/BowlNews/BowlNewsViewer/tabid/122/ArticleId/106/Chick-fil-A-Bowl-Achieves-Earliest-Sellout-in-its-History.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140215190242/http://www.chick-fil-abowl.com/PressBox/BowlNews/BowlNewsViewer/tabid/122/ArticleId/106/Chick-fil-A-Bowl-Achieves-Earliest-Sellout-in-its-History.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-date=15 February 2014|title=Chick-fil-A Bowl Achieves Earliest Sellout in its History|date=15 February 2014|access-date=11 July 2018}}</ref>

The Peach Bowl ascended to major-bowl status when it was added to the "[[New Year's Six]]" bowls starting with the 2014 season, assuring that it would feature major conference champions and/or prestigious runners-up. The traditional "Peach Bowl" name was reinstated following the announcement.<ref name="repeach">{{cite web|title=Chick-fil-A Bowl will restore 'Peach' to its name|author=Tim Tucker|publisher=Atlanta Journal-Constitution|date=April 18, 2014|access-date=April 20, 2014|url=http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/college-football/chick-fil-a-bowl-will-restore-peach-to-its-name/nfcpT/|archive-date=January 31, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160131114709/http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/college-football/chick-fil-a-bowl-will-restore-peach-to-its-name/nfcpT/|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/eye-on-college-football/24531797/playoff-will-add-peach-back-to-chick-fil-a-bowl-name |title=Chick-Fil-A Bowl adds 'Peach' back to name after playoff inclusion |website=CBSSports.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/10802190/chick-fil-bowl-adds-peach-back-title-comply-college-football-playoff |title=Bowl complies with new playoff |website= ESPN.com}}</ref>

===Notable games===
The [[1974 Peach Bowl|1974 edition]] is the only Peach Bowl to have ended in a tie, as [[1974 Texas Tech Red Raiders football team|Texas Tech]] and [[1974 Vanderbilt Commodores football team|Vanderbilt]] each were limited to two [[field goal]]s in a 6–6 tie, played before the NCAA used overtime.

The [[1976 Peach Bowl|1976 edition]] was the first, and to date only, shutout in Peach Bowl history, as [[1976 Kentucky Wildcats football team|Kentucky]] (21 points) held [[1976 North Carolina Tar Heels football team|North Carolina]] scoreless.
