Oklahoma Wins in First-Ever Visit to the Swamp

Mateer threw a pair of short touchdown passes, the last one to Isaiah Sategna III that capped a 20-play, clock-eating, 89-yard drive and put the Gators in a position of having to rally in the final five minutes when they had trouble scoring all night.

OU's game-clinching drive that took 12:45 off the clock saw Oklahoma convert five third-down plays.

The Gators' longest play from scrimmage was a 33-yard pass to Duke Clark in the flats. That drive ended when coach Jon Sumrall went for it on fourth-and-3 from the 17 with Oklahoma up 13-7 and 6:27 left in the third quarter.
