Radford vs North Carolina Prediction
North Carolina could obviously win this game in blowout fashion, but it’s also a letdown spot after just beating Kansas. Redford is off to a fine start through two games and while it hasn’t played anybody, it’s impressive to have five double-digit scorers. Radford has a few guys who have played at major programs, and Jaylon Johnson is somebody who can score the ball. Radford shouldn’t be intimated here, as the top players on the roster are seniors. UNC should win without much of a sweat, but I want the points.
