Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Joseph Yesufu had 16 points off the bench to lead Drake to an 86-55 win over Southern Illinois, the Bulldogs’ 13th consecutive victory to open the season. Marcus Domask led the Salukis with 13 points.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The top two spots in the the first NET rankings mirror The Associated Press college basketball poll. Gonzaga and Baylor were No. 1 in the NCAA Evaluation Tool rankings released Monday, not long after taking the top two spots in the AP Top 25. Tennessee, ranked No. 9 in the AP Top 25, was third in the NET, followed by Illinois and Villanova. Iowa, Houston, Texas and Missouri rounded out the top 10.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — It took the Kansas City Chiefs sitting half their starters, some with injuries but most as a precaution, for the defending Super Bowl champs to lose by more than one possession for the first time in an NFL-record 60 games. If the streak was going to end the Chiefs are just fine with it happening that way. The closest Patrick Mahomes came to getting hurt was stubbing his toe on the sideline during a 38-21 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. The same for tight end Travis Kelce, wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins, safety Tyrann Mathieu and a host of other players that will be crucial as the Chiefs begin the playoffs in two weeks.
