No. 15 BYU-No. 23 Utah Game
Date: Saturday, October 18, 2025
Venue: LaVell Edwards Stadium
Location: Provo, Utah
Utah reentered the Top 25 this week, checking in at No. 23 after crushing a shorthanded Arizona State team 42-10 at home last weekend. The Utes have won two consecutive games by an average of 33 points.
BYU jumped out to a 6-0 start for the second consecutive season, marking the first time in program history that they have accomplished that feat. The Cougars hope to have gained momentum in a rain-soaked, 2OT road win over the Arizona Wildcats.
BYU is looking for its third straight win for the first time since 1992.
