AJ Casey of Evansville (and briefly SLU) is the MVC player of the week after his 37-point game against Valparaiso, which included a game-tying and a game-winning 3-pointer.

At this point, they're probably safe no matter what happens.

SLU hanging on, drops to 25th in AP poll.

Teuchert has created some nice chances in limited time in the first two games, which is encouraging, but hasn't been able to finish. Which is less encouraging. Looks like he's ready for starter-level minutes now.
