This Radford vs Clemson prediction and free NCAAB pick pick will focus on the fact that both previous series meetings went Over the Total—by 6 points (74-66, 134) and 13 points (93-58, 138)—and that every Radford game this year has gone Over. Toss in Clemson’s 3-1 O/U mark and the fact the Tigers have put up 91, 88, and 75 already in wins, and expecting a relatively high-scoring game to go Over in the last 3 minutes seems good. The Tigers should score around 84 here with Radford around its series average of 66, making the total number of anticipated points at 150.
