DAVIDSON, N.C. -- The Wildcats hit the road for just the second time in five weeks when they travel to Jacksonville Saturday for a 1 p.m. contest.
THE GAME
• The Wildcats hit the road for just the second time in five weeks when they travel to Jacksonville Saturday for a 1 p.m. contest.
• In that five week span, Davidson snapped a 15-game drought with a win over Kentucky Wesleyan College on Oct. 10 at Richardson Stadium.
• Saturday's game will mark the 18th meeting between the two teams as Jacksonville leads the all-time series that dates back to 1998, 11-6. Jacksonville has won the last six meetings against the 'Cats.
• The Wildcats are 2-7 at Jacksonville with their last win coming in the 2007 season.
• The last Pioneer Football League win for the Wildcats came at Valparaiso on Nov. 10, 2012 where Davidson took a 28-27 overtime victory.
• Davidson is 28-62 (.311) all-time in the Pioneer Football League.
QUICK SLANTS
• Despite William Morris' 164-yard performance against Campbell, Davidson is coming off a 39-9 setback to the Camels Saturday at Richardson Stadium.
• #RecordWatch: After setting the all-time receiving yards record against Marist, Morris is just 12 receptions and two touchdowns away from tying the other two all-time marks.
• Morris has recorded impressive performances in the last two weeks, leading the team with 100-yard games, including 164 yards on 11 receptions and a touchdown against Campbell last Saturday.
• Despite giving up 31 points against Marist, Davidson's defense finished with six sacks and nine tackles for a loss, which marks the first time since 2009 the Wildcats recorded six sacks in a game.
• LB Ben Hart leads the Davidson defense with 54 tackles, including 2.0 for a loss. Eight other Wildcats have tallied 30 or more tackles this season. Hart recorded a career-high 10 tackles at Butler.
• WR William Morris leads the Davidson offense with 561 yards, which is tied-for-fifth in the PFL, on 42 catches with six touchdowns. The senior averages 70.1 yards per game this season. RB Jeffrey Keil leads the rushing corps with 217 yards on 63 carries in six games this season.
