犹他大学与杨百翰大学11月7日上演「圣战」对决：两队史上首次同时跻身前十
位于犹他州盐湖县盐湖城市的犹他大学与杨百翰大学之间的「圣战」对决即将在11月7日上演。据美联社11月4日报道，本场比赛将于本周六在盐湖城打响，并创造了一项历史：两队史上首次同时跻身全国前十。
排名第三的犹他大学本赛季8战全胜，在大十二联盟中5战全胜，位列首届大学橄榄球季后赛排名第三；排名第七的杨百翰大学则取得7胜1负，在大十二联盟5胜1负，季后赛排名第九。两队此前多次交锋都决定了联盟冠军归属，本场比赛同样可能左右季后赛席位。
犹他大学希望终结对杨百翰的三连败，过去三场失利的平均分差仅为4.3分；而杨百翰自犹他大学2024年加入大十二联盟以来已连续两年在第四节逆转取胜。美联社指出，这场始于地区恩怨的对决，如今已成为全美最受关注的大学橄榄球对抗之一，吸引了远超犹他州范围的球迷目光。

Utah and BYU Meet in the Holy War on November 7, Both Ranked in the Top 10 for the First Time
The Holy War rivalry between the University of Utah, in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah, and Brigham Young University will be renewed on November 7. According to an Associated Press report on November 4, Saturday's game in Salt Lake City makes history: both teams are ranked in the national Top 10 going into the game for the first time in the storied rivalry's history.
No. 3 Utah is 8-0 overall and 5-0 in the Big 12, and sits No. 3 in the College Football Playoff rankings. No. 7 BYU is 7-1, 5-1 in the Big 12, and No. 9 in the CFP rankings. Many past editions of the Holy War have decided conference championships, and this game could again carry playoff implications.
Utah is seeking to snap a three-game losing streak in the series, having lost those games by an average of only 4.3 points, while BYU has rallied from fourth-quarter deficits to win in back-to-back seasons since Utah joined the Big 12 in 2024. The AP notes that what began as an intense regional showdown has evolved into one of the top rivalries in the FBS, drawing interest from fans far beyond Utah.
