SALT LAKE CITY – We have a kickoff time for the BYU/Utah rivalry game at Rice-Eccles Stadium.

The two in-state rivals will kick off at 8:15 pm on Saturday, November 9. Television rights for the game will be on ESPN.

BYU comes into the matchup with a perfect 8-0 overall record and 5-0 in Big 12 play. On the other hand, Utah is currently on a four-game losing streak, 4-4 and 1-4 in Big 12 action.

It’s the first time BYU/Utah are meeting as members of the Big 12 Conference. However, they are no stranger to facing off against each other in conferences. They were league rivals in the WAC and Mountain West together, even dating back to the 1920s in the Rocky Mountain Conference.

This will be the first meeting as conference foes since 2010.

BYU won the last meeting in the series in 2021, 26-17. That victory from BYU ended Utah’s nine-game winning streak in the rivalry, dating back to 2010.

It’s the first meeting in Salt Lake City since 2018. The six-year gap was caused by COVID-19, which took away the 2020 meeting. Then, the two programs didn’t play against each other in 2022.

BYU has not won in Salt Lake City since the 2006 meeting that resulted in a last-minute touchdown pass from John Beck to Jonny Harline.

The Big 12 Conference took a reimagined look at how they structured their rivalry games this season. They spread out the rivalry matchups in the league throughout the year, including placing BYU/Utah on an unusual November 9 spot, three weeks before the season’s final week, where they typically met in the WAC and Mountain West.
