The tiny liberal arts school from Davidson, North Carolina is impossible to root against.

Ranked No. 10 in the Midwest Region, the Wildcats of Davidson College have now officially upended the No. 7, No. 2 and No. 3 teams en route to an incredible run through the 2008 NCAA Tournament.

After beating Gonzaga* in the first round, Davidson defeated a perennial giant in NCAA hoops, the Georgetown Hoyas, to make the Sweet Sixteen. The excitement spread all the way to the Davidson board of trustees, who offered its student body of 1,700 undergraduates an all-expenses paid trip to the Sweet Sixteen game against Wisconsin in Detroit.

Think the move paid off? Ask the Badgers, whose own championship dreams were squashed by the Wildcats Friday night with a 73-56 win.

At the center of the Davidson run is the thin-framed, baby-faced sharpshooting sophomore, Stephen Curry, son of former NBA player Dell Curry. His 40, 30 and 33 points in the first three rounds, respectively, all managed to come at the perfect time of each game.

Curry has the face of a high schooler, but the jumper of a seasoned vet.

And, despite his small body frame, Curry has managed to carry the Wildcats on his back all the way to the Elite Eight, where they will face the No. 1 Kansas Jayhawks.

Like every other round so far, experts predict Davidson to lose Sunday. But can the Wildcats momentum be stopped?

Or, will they managed yet another amazing upset, silencing doubters and continuing the plight of the small school — a la George Mason — and make it to the Final Four?

Find out tomorrow at 5:05 p.m. EST, when the little team from North Carolina sets their sights on the giant school from Kansas.

How can you not root for the little guy?
