Even with Kyler Murray and the Cardinals on a bye, five different former Sooner quarterbacks started behind center this week in the NFL.

It was another disappointing day for the Oklahoma Sooners in a high-profile matchup. This time against a top-10 team in their 34-26 loss to the Ole Miss Rebels. The Sooners fought their way back for a third-quarter lead but squandered opportunities in the fourth quarter to get a big win.

Mateer had surgery on the throwing hand during Oklahoma’s off week, then sat out the win over Kent State. He returned for the showdown against Texas on Oct. 11, but he had the worst game of his career and threw three interceptions in a loss. He limited mistakes in a win against South Carolina last week as the running game carried the load.
