I just started thinking of this today with the Black Friday announcement of UF-FSU (how UF has never played a non-Saturday game in forever) and Benny Z. complaining about Thursday/Friday games. Remember when UCF had Sunday games?
There were a bunch of C-USA games on Sunday nights in the late 2000s.
In 2007, UCF played a road game at Southern Miss on a Sunday. A big win which helped win the division.
In 2008, UCF played a road game at Tulsa on a Sunday (got hammered 49-14, Tulsa was ranked #19). The following week, UCF lost to ECU at home on a Sunday, 13-10 in OT.
In 2009, UCF's 21-20 comeback "rainy mist" home win vs. Marshall was also on a Sunday night.
Outside of maybe a Labor Day weekend game on a Sunday, I don't think college teams have played on Sunday ever since.
