The Salukis did what you'd want with three double-digit home wins against a soft schedule to start the season. AJ Ferguson, one of a few guys who look much-improved so far this season, scored more points against Chicago State last night (20) than he had all of last season.
However ... the schedule gets much tougher starting next week. SIU's next five games = early-season darling James Madison and either Fresno St. or New Mexico St. in Cancun, then at Indiana State, then home with SLU and Oklahoma St. So, we'll see exactly where things stand in the next few weeks.
