On the Indiana State rivalry:
"From the first two games I played here, the experience of playing them is always a war. No matter what are records are, it always ends up being a close game. Somebody has to make a big play for their team to come out a winner."
 
On the Indiana State game being a good game before playing at Butler:
"Yeah, I think (Indiana State) was a great game before Butler. They have the same kind of style of play - they're both tough. both physical. I think it's a very good game to prepare us for that."
 
On him getting better as the games goes on:
"I just like to make plays during pressure times for my teammates. I'm just going to do everything in my power to help us out wit ha victory."
 
On Trammell carrying the team in the first half against Indiana State, and then him carrying the team in the second half:
"That's what the seniors are here for. They lead by example. That's what we tried to do (in the Indiana State game). That's our job - to not let our teammates get down, just keep our heads in the game, keep pushing, and keep fighting back." 
 
On winning games like the Indiana State game this year instead of losing them last year:
"We're a different team than last year. We've got experience this year. We learned from our mistakes from last year, and I think that's why we're a better team this year."
 
On what he expects to see from Butler:
"I don't think there is anything in particular, but I'm expecting to see everything. Whatever happens, happens."
