LOGAN, Utah – Utah State men's basketball is ranked No. 22 in this week's Associated Press Poll and No. 23 in the Coaches Poll that was released on Monday. Utah State is one of two nationally-ranked Mountain West teams along with San Diego State, who is at No. 20.
 
This is the sixth week the Aggies have been ranked in both polls. USU was previously ranked No. 22 (Feb. 5) No. 17 (Jan. 29), No. 18 (Jan. 22), No. 16 (Jan. 15), and No. 20 (Jan. 8) in the AP Poll, while it was No. 21 (Feb. 5), No. 17 (Jan. 29), No. 20 (Jan. 22), No. 17 (Jan. 15) and No. 23 (Jan. 8) in the Coaches Poll.
