The Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl is the ninth oldest bowl game in college football.

Atlanta's postseason game was first played in 1968.

Nearly 50 years later, the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl will be the center of attention on New Year's Eve as the host of one of two College Football Playoff semifinal games.

As an ACC-SEC postseason game for nearly a decade and the sight of some record-setting teams, the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl has seen its bit of talent.
