We all know that Davidson is going to come back to earth now that Stephen Curry has moved on to bigger and better things in the NBA. Well he plays with the Warriors, so maybe not better, but definitely bigger. Davidson faces some stiff competition this year and it will no doubt be tough for them to still be that dominant force they once were with Curry gone. They have touch match ups this year @ Butler, vs Rhode Island, and @ Gonzaga. Not to mention they will be participating in the Charleston Classic where they will play South Florida and then the winner/loser of La Salle/South Carolina. Not a bad out of conference schedule for a team that will certainly fall back to life. My only question is the game they have scheduled on November 25th, the day before Thanksgiving.

Traveling to play in Davidson, N.C will be the SUNY Fredonia Blue Devils. Hold on...lets have that sink in.........

Okay its not a lie...SUNY Fredonia Blue Devils vs Davidson Wildcats. This is not an exhibition game or a pre-season contest. Davidson has just destroyed their R.P.I ranking and Strength of Schedule. Not only have they decided to not play the worst DI team in the nation, they by passed any DII squads like the power house LeMoyne, and have gone to a DIII squad. A DIII squad in the SUNYAC league, that has a logo that may have been drawn by a 4th grader. The same team that yours truly once had a uniform and warmed up for, and cheered on the bench for.

Now FSU I have to imagine gets absolutely blown out, but I know nothing about the squad. Preliminary look at the roster shows some color and promise from years past. Is there going to be a spread for this game? Obviously Vegas will have to do some serious researching and trending for this game and set the line @ Davidson -20? Davidson -30? Davidson -40? Is there a high enough number that will shake you off.

Does Fredonia just play tough and get their moment in the sun taking down a D1 school of notoriety? You got to bet there will be some sport center clips of this game if its an upset, worst case scenario SUNY Fredonia gets a mention on the bottom line scroll, which is a victory in its self. And who does Coach Moore (Blue Devils Coach) know to get this game scheduled. Does he just make a random call to coach McKillop and say "Hey, wanna play my team at home."

Is SUNY Fredonia receiving some serious cash from Davidson for making the trip. Usually schools will pay smaller schools to come and get an whooping. Will this game even be able to be tracked on Yahoo or CBSsportsline? Will it actually have player names for Fredonia or will the box score just have player 1 (2 pts) player 2 (4 pts)?
