Mateer thumb injury?

[f1revo]

He was never going to make it through the season with how overly reliant they are on his legs.

[alrightalrightalright]

Ya gotta know when to walk away, know when to run.

So easy to predict this happening. Can’t throw fine china in a bullpen and expect it to survive

OU fans grab your tushies!!!

What are the odds on that 

About 50/50 I'd say. When you have QB that runs around all over the place playing against high level defenses, he's not likely to last long.

Nahhhh this is bs. He will magically be healed and ready to go for the RRS.

Probably because that game is BV's job security

Texas has had some insane injury luck regarding opposing teams’ health in the past couple of years. 
 

Really unfortunate for the young man. Hope he heals well.

It is likely Texas faces off against Oklahoma with a backup QB for the third time in the last four meetings.

I feel like he will do everything he can to play. There’s no way he misses. 
 

kind of crazy that everyone was saying his playing style was unsustainable in SEC play, and it only took 1 game 😬 sorry CJ, I know he’s your QB crush. I hope he is better in time for RR. 

[Realist Horn]

OU will make sure he is back for Texas - even if they push his rehab.

What are you talking about? The guy went to a criminal program for money and signed up to cheat! Anyone from Texas that goes to the criminals needs to be in prison.

not in his control. finger surgery is no joke, flexbility will be too limited to throw a football.

Honestly, I wanted him there and healthy.  No excuses.  I think we are better than them.  Period.

[coltonmartinez]

Dang, he has been fun to watch thus far. The sport is best when both us and OU are good

I don’t route for injuries, but I also don’t route for OU 

[Rocky P]

Just here to check on @CJ Vogel How are you going to recover from this?

I don’t see how, Mosley was out 8 weeks with a hamstring. Then a guy can come back in 2 weeks after having surgery? I highly doubt it. 

[LonghornFan4Ever]

You saw what happened to Casey Thompson's career at Texas when he had a thumb injury.  That is nothing to play with.  Sucks for Mateer.

No it's not. The criminals have cheated their entire existence. They deserve the status the state of Oklahoma should rightly deliver to them. They never won anything without cheating. I don't get this crap.

[Waxahorn]

I am verklempt! Now watch out for those trick plays.

Very, very unfortunate for Mateer.

SoonerScoop has reported that the OU QB will have surgery on Wednesday. Oklahoma has a bye this week, but Michael Hawkins has been named the starter for next weekend's game against Kent State on October 4. 

Reportedly a 3-week absence at least for Mateer.

 

Oh I think he’ll be on the field against Texas. Not sure what game the criminals are playing but they are up to something.

That’ll get venables in some hot water. You gonna rush a guy back after having surgery on his throwing hand against a hard hitting Texas defense?

Stoops literally bragged about knowing they were cheating and getting away with it. QB who runs around like a chicken with his head cut off against high level SEC defenses then turns up injured. Sucks for Auburn they got hosed, not Mateer.

OU Insider (Parker Thune) said based on what he's heard, their game against South Carolina "is the most reasonable target date for his return." OU's schedule leading up to South Carolina:

Bye

Kent State

Texas

at South Carolina.
