Joel Klatt Says John Mateer's Injury Derails Sooners' Season

Mateer will miss several weeks after breaking a bone in his throwing hand vs Auburn. “Without Mateer that optimism kind of goes out the window,” Klatt said. With six ranked matchups looming, Klatt warned the Sooners’ defense will face immense pressure: “Ask Iowa how that goes.” In Mateer’s absence, Michael Hawkins Jr. is expected to take the QB1 role.
