Coming off a blowout win, Virginia Tech (5-3) visits nearby Radford to take on the Radford Highlanders (5-4). The Hokies lost to Radford at home last season, in a game where the Hokies did not play well defensively. But it’s a new season as the Hokies look to redeem themselves and build off a dominant performance against Arkansas Pine-Bluff.
For Virginia Tech, smothering Radford’s offense isn’t exactly the most difficult task in the world. The Highlanders enter the game averaging just 68.7 PPG, which ranks 227th in the country. Their best output was 82 points against Georgetown, but it took double overtime to get there.
