Satterfield previewed the annual Battle for the Victory Bell matchup against Miami in a recent press conference per Cincinnati Athletics!

"“The first time at night to be able to play at Nippert. Really excited about that. The first game was awesome but I’m sure this game will have even more electricity. The students will be out and everybody will have plenty of time to tailgate and have fun before the game. It was a big win and we’re excited about it but ready to move onto Miami this week. We know it’s a rivalry game and what’s at stake with it. We know we’re going to get their best shot. They’re going to come here and play as hard as possible. Whatever they showed on film, I think you have to elevate that because that’s how they will play. You have to be ready for everything. They’re very solid and aggressive.”"
