JOHN MATEER NEWS

Throws over 300 in win Mateer was 23-for-38 passing for 318 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions during Saturday's 17-13 win over LSU. He also had eight rushes for 27 yards.

Impact The senior quarterback rebounded in clutch fashion and despite the turnovers, he delivered a game-winning 58-yard touchdown pass to seal the victory. His 300+ yard passing and two scores demonstrate his high ceiling, but the three picks continue to highlight ball-security issues, which cap his floor for fantasy value. For future games, Mateer's upside remains tied to his ability to balance aggressiveness with discipline. During the regular season, the signal-caller completed 221of 356 passes (62.1 percent) for 2,578 yards, 12 touchdowns and 10 interceptions while rushing the ball 130 times for 416 yards and seven scores.

Efficient in win Mateer was 14-for-30 passing for 173 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 17-6 victory over Missouri. He also had 18 rushes for 60 yards.

Impact Mateer didn't post eye-popping statistics, but delivered when it mattered with two passing scores and zero turnovers. His ability to manage and capitalize in the red zone was key. The senior quarterback's floor is bolstered by his running ability and low turnover count, however, his ceiling may be capped until higher passing yardage becomes more consistent.

NOVEMBER 17 • FOX SPORTS

Low production in win Mateer was 15-for-23 passing for 138 yards during Saturday's 23-21 win over Alabama. He also had 10 rushes for 23 yards with one touchdown.

Impact The senior quarterback delivered a gritty performance in a hostile environment with modest passing yardage but managed a crucial rushing score and avoided turnovers. His ability to steer the offense in a tight game showed veteran poise. With Missouri up next, Mateer will need to find more consistency in the passing game as he's now finished under 200 passing yards in three of his last four outings. A more balanced performance could keep Oklahoma's playoff hopes intact.
