SCOUTING THE AGGIES
No. 67 Utah State has clinched at least a share of the MW regular-season title and remains the only team undefeated in conference play. The Aggies hold a 6-0 mark in MW action and are 14-5 overall. Utah State opened conference play with a 4-0 sweep of No. 61 UNLV on March 20 and has not lost since. The Aggies are tied with UNLV for the most MW Player of the Week honors this season. Boise State leads the all-time series, 41-16, but trails 6-2 in matches played in Logan.
Â
SWEEPS
Boise State has recorded nine sweeps this season, its highest total since 2021. One more sweep would give the Broncos their most in a single season since 2012, when they tallied 11.
Â
RANKED WINS
Boise State is tied for second in the MW with two ranked wins, trailing San Diego State's three, while Air Force, Grand Canyon and UNLV also have two; Utah State has one, and Nevada and New Mexico are still seeking their first ranked win of the season.

The duo also has 19 dual-match wins, another would place them 13th all-time. Meanwhile, Baker and Tallakson are one win away from reaching 20 victories this season.
