The way that Presbyterian’s defense has performed the last few games has been quite impressive, and there is no reason to believe it’s going to change here. Radford’s offense has been good overall, but they are going to really struggle here. There isn’t a strong play on the side, but this game is going to end up being lower-scoring. The under is 5-1 against the spread in the Highlander’s last six games. Back the under to cash here.
