I looked into this. Chik fil a has sponsored the game since 1997 and interestingly enough the game has NEVER been played on a sunday.

Edit: not played on a sunday while chik fil a is sponsor. that is as far back as i went.

Yes.

They just rename the game the McD Southern Chicken Biscuit Bowl the years it falls on Sunday.

Has there ever been a bowl near the same level as the Peach Bowl play on a Sunday?

(And by same level as the Peach bowl, i mean pre-playoff peach bowl)

NFL games are on Sunday this week so no to only one bowl. That and ESPN with the TV contract.
