The Utah State women’s basketball team has announced its full schedule now with the release of the Aggies’ conference slate of games. The team had already announced its non-conference schedule but now have the entire 29-game slate for the 2025-26 season.
Wes Brooks’ new-look Aggies will begin the season unofficially on Oct. 30 with an exhibition against San Francisco State. Just over a week later, Utah State will welcome in-state rival Utah to the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum. It’ll be the first time the Utes visit Logan since 2017.
This year’s non-conference schedule features an easier balance of home and away games. In 2024, the Aggies played eight consecutive games away from home, going 34 days between games played in Logan. There will be another long gap this year, but notably shorter at 23 days between the game against Stanislaus State (Nov. 20) and vs Idaho (Dec. 13)
Utah State’s first conference game will come on Dec. 17, a home game against Air Force. And just like the men’s team, the women’s team will spend four of the next six games on the road. They will also have a fairly unique scheduling quirk by playing Wyoming in back-to-back games. First in Laramie on Jan. 21 and then at home on Jan. 24.
With a 12-team basketball conference and 20-game conference schedule, the Mountain West has returned to the format used for years when it had 11 teams and an 18-game slate. Each team will face nine conference opponents in a home-and-home series and then play the two remaining teams just once, one on the road and one at home. Utah State will face San Diego State and Colorado State once each, the Aztecs at home (Jan. 10) and the Rams on the road (Dec. 20).

The Mountain West basketball tournament will begin on March 7 and run through March 11 in a slightly altered format due to the addition of a twelfth team. The fifth seed in the tournament will no longer get a bye as that team will have to play on the first day of games. The top four seeds will get a bye and face the winners from the opening round.
