The undefeated Aggies are being recognized as one of the best mid-major teams in the nation this year. With their #5 ranking this week they are in the company of some very good basketball teams who have established great programs over the years. The teams above the Aggies play against some pretty rugged competition so, if the Ags are to move up and gain even more attention, their next two games at home vs Central Florida and on the road at Oregon State will be huge.

Excerpt:

5. UC Davis (9-0)

"The West Coast Conference has generally had the edge in reputation over the Big West in terms of mid-major basketball in recent seasons, but UC Davis is having none of that. The Aggies beat San Francisco and Saint Mary's by a combined 41 points in recent days, the second of those games on the road. That after wins against Pepperdine and Pacific earlier this season.

Asserting supremacy over the Pac-12 is a bigger ask, but after a win earlier this season against Washington State, UC Davis plays its biggest nonconference game of the year at Oregon State on Dec. 20. At the very least, an improvement on last season's 41-point loss should be expected."

Last week: No. 6
