Whatever happens, a win always helps. That would be the biggest thing for us. We're trying to bag as many wins as possible before the Big Ten matches. That will always help the team and help everyone individually.
I just think that knowing you are playing against a Big Ten team sparks something within us. Automatically, it creates a different sense of excitement.
Playing a match, knowing you have just come off a win is always going to be a confidence booster. Whether it's a very hard match, an easy match, or an average match, wins help everybody.
A Big Ten match, being a win or a loss, it gives you that much more happiness when you win, and that much more sadness when you lose. Every match means a lot to us.
It would be hard to say how good they are because the team they were then is not the team they are now. As good as it is to know how good the competition is, sometimes by not knowing it just makes the entire team more prepared for pretty much everything.
