BYU and Utah sit atop Big 12 football power rankings after strong Week 2 performances, with both teams establishing themselves as conference championship contenders. KSL's rankings place the two Utah schools ahead of traditional powers as the Big 12 enters its third week.

BYU's comeback win over Arizona and Utah's continued momentum have analysts projecting a potential in-state showdown for conference supremacy. Both teams face critical Big 12 tests in coming weeks that will determine whether they can maintain separation from the rest of the conference.
