John Mateer’s Heisman odds crash after injury and brutal performance vs Texas

The dreams of another Oklahoma quarterback hoisting the Heisman Trophy seem to be fading.

Once a favorite to win the award at one point early this season, OU quarterback John Mateer’s Heisman odds have recently plummeted after an injury and a poor performance in a loss to Texas on Saturday.

John Mateer's injury hurting Heisman chances

As of Tuesday, according to BetMGM, Mateer’s Heisman odds were even worse than during the preseason at +4000 now. That’s still better than some oddsmakers, though, with DraftKings putting Mateer’s odds at +7500, and FanDuel has them all the way at +10000, seemingly out of the race.
