After Saturday’s win over Auburn, Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer clarified he was different than Johnny Manziel after a question about similar nicknames the two now share, and it didn’t take long for Manziel to clap back.
Between the way he plays and a viral false sports gambling accusation, fans have started calling Mateer, “Money Mateer,” and he was asked about the nickname postgame on Saturday.
“I like it,” Mateer said then. “I don’t want to do the ‘Money Manziel’ (celebration) like (Manziel). Me and him are probably kind of different people. He’s awesome, but his stories are a little different than mine.
