The 1997 season edition to the Peach Bowl featured the Auburn Tigers and the Clemson Tigers.
Auburn overcame a 17-6 deficit, largely caused by three blocked punts, entering the fourth quarter to score 15 unanswered points, posting a 21-17 victory. Auburn quarterback Dameyune Craig threw a touchdown pass to Karsten Bailey for the first of three scores in the final frame. Then Rusty Williams gave Auburn the lead with a seven-yard touchdown run before Jaret Holmes booted the final field goal, one of his three successful kicks in the game.
