The Boston University–Holy Cross rivalry is an American college rivalry that exists between the Boston University Terriers sports teams of Boston University and the Holy Cross Crusaders sports teams of The College of the Holy Cross. The Terriers and Crusaders have a program-wide rivalry called the Turnpike Trophy, which BU leads 2–0 as of 2017.{{cite web|url=http://boston.cbslocal.com/2015/08/14/boston-university-holy-cross-create-turnpike-trophy-to-spice-up-rivalry/ |title=Boston University, Holy Cross Create 'Turnpike Trophy' To Spice Up Rivalry « CBS Boston |publisher=Boston.cbslocal.com |date=2015-08-14 |access-date=2017-04-14}}
Both schools are members of the Patriot League. BU and Holy Cross had been conference rivals in the past prior to the former joining the Patriot League in 2013. The two schools were in the ECAC-North Conference (now known as the America East Conference) together from 1979–83, at which point the Crusaders departed for the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference.

Now in the same conference, the two schools agreed to face off for the Turnpike Trophy across all sports in 2015. BU won the inaugural trophy in 2015–2016 and leads the series 8–0. The trophy gets its name from the Massachusetts Turnpike, on which both schools are located about 42 miles away from each other.
In general, each head-to-head contest between the two schools in each sport is worth a single point in the standings. In softball, 1 point is awarded to the winner of the three game series. In sports that do not have head-to-head competition such as cross country, track & field, swimming & diving, rowing, and golf, 1 point is awarded to the school that finishes higher at the Patriot League Championships.
