Pregame Primer: Creighton Finishes Finals Week with a Test Against UTRGV

Fresh off a pair of double-digit wins over outmatched, mediocre opponents, Creighton is about to embark on the toughest portion of their schedule: a home game with Oklahoma, a road game at Arizona State, and a brutal opening gauntlet from the Big East that sees them face Marquette, #18 Butler, #20 Villanova and #23 Xavier in the span of just 11 days. One final tuneup against D1 opposition remains — Friday night against the University of Texas-Rio Grande Valley, or UTRGV for short. If you’ve never heard of UTRGV, you’re not alone. But you have an excuse: they’ve only been a thing for four years.
