The 2007–08 Davidson Wildcats men's basketball team represented Davidson College in NCAA men's Division I competition during the 2007–08 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.
Coached by 2008 NABC Coach of the Year Bob McKillop and led by consensus Second Team All-American guard Stephen Curry, the Wildcats completed an undefeated season in the Southern Conference and reached the 2008 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament Elite 8, upsetting Gonzaga, Georgetown, and Wisconsin before falling to eventual national champion Kansas 59–57. This marked the first time that Davidson won a tournament game since the 1969 season, when the Wildcats reached the Elite Eight under then-coach Lefty Driesell.
