After a first-round NCAA tournament rout of Toledo last week, the Badgers face No. 1 seed South Carolina on the road on Friday.
It'll be a challenge for UW. The Gamecocks (16-2-1) were third in the Ratings Percentage Index and are 7-0-1 at home.
The Badgers (14-5-2) made it into the tournament with a No. 29 RPI ranking, but coach Paula Wilkins said that not being favored works into her team's favor.
"I think our team mentality is that we've got nothing to lose so we're going to throw it all out there," said Wilkins, whose team is 6-2-1 on the road.
