Strong effort in win Mateer was 19-for-29 passing for 159 yards and one interception during Saturday's 33-27 victory over Tennessee. He also had 16 rushes for 80 yards with one touchdown.

Impact The junior quarterback delivered in the clutch with the decisive run, showing his dual-threat value under pressure. However, his passing yardage remains modest compared to his best efforts and he still must protect the ball better. With Oklahoma heading into a bye week before facing Alabama Crimson Tide on Nov. 15, Mateer's ability to maintain composure and deliver both on the ground and through the air will be key.
