2014 Davidson Football Schedule
DAVIDSON, N.C. – The 2014 Davidson football team will play 12 games in a season for the first time in program history, it was announced Wednesday by head coach Paul Nichols.
Â
The slate will be split evenly with six home games and six road games, with four of the first six taking place on Stephen B. Smith Field in Richardson Stadium. The Wildcats will play four non-conference games, including trips to VMI and Princeton, and eight Pioneer Football League games.
Â
The season will open with back-to-back games against regional foes that will kick off under the lights of Richardson Stadium at 7 p.m. Davidson will host the College of Faith – Charlotte in the year's inaugural contest, Aug. 30, and then face Catawba the following week for the first time since 1987. The remaining four home games will kickoff at 1 p.m.
Â
The 'Cats will take on VMI for the 59th time in program history Sept. 13 in Lexington, Va., but it will be the first meeting between the two programs since 2006.
Â
The PFL slate will begin Sept. 20, as Davidson will host Morehead State for its annual Homecoming Game.
Â
Davidson will hit the road again the following week for just the second-ever meeting with Princeton. The highly regarded academic institutions' only previous match took place in Charlotte in 1987.
Â
The remaining seven games will all be league contests, starting with Dayton at home Oct. 4. The next two will be on the road at Drake (Oct. 11, 1 p.m. Central) and Campbell (Oct. 18, 1 p.m.).
Â
The home slate will conclude with Stetson during Family Weekend Oct. 25 and, following a bye week, Jacksonville for Senior Day on Nov. 8.
Â
Davidson will conclude the regular season by traveling to Marist, (Nov. 15, 1 p.m.) and Valparaiso (Nov. 22, 1 p.m.)
Â
Ticket information will follow in the coming weeks.
Â
The schedule listed is tentative and subject to change.
