• Utah State is off to a 15-1 start and is 5-0 in Mountain West play. The team's .938 winning percentage is the best in the nation. The Aggies are one of six teams with a single loss and are the only squad with 15 wins.

• This is USU's second 5-0 start to league play since joining the Mountain West, the other coming in 2020-21 when it won its first nine conference games.

• Aggie head coach Jerrod Calhoun has won 15 of his first 16 games at the helm of the program. His .933 winning percentage is the best among first-year head coaches in Division I this season, and is tied for the best 16-game start for a coach in program history, matching Danny Sprinkle's 15-1 start last season. 

• USU made its season debut in both the AP Top 25 and the USA Today Coaches Polls this week, checking in at No. 25 in each. This is the 11th season in school history that Utah State has achieved a national ranking. 

• Utah State is 78-25 (.757) all-time as an AP ranked squad.

• The Aggies are 7-0 away from home so far this year, winning four true road games and three neutral site contests.

• Utah State is the only team in the country with three Quad 1 road wins. 

• Currently 15-1, this is the fourth-best 16-game start to a season in program history. The Aggies opened the year with a program-best 10-straight wins.

• The Aggies are one of just two teams in the country with four players averaging at least three assists per game. Drake Allen leads the way with 3.9 helpers per game, followed by Mason Falslev (3.4), Ian Martinez (3.3) and Jordy Barnes (3.1).

• Utah State ranks No. 28 in the NET rankings and is the highest ranked team in the Mountain West. 

• This will be the 60th all-time meeting between Utah State and Boise State, a series which began in 1974. USU leads the series 38-21, including a 22-4 record in Logan. The Aggies have won each of the past four meetings, including an 90-84 overtime win in Boise and an 80-61 win in Logan last season.
