Temple head coach K.C. Keeler proclaimed Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer would pay the price when he ran against the Owls. Instead, Mateer didn't just walk the walk after Keeler talked, but he ran and threw without paying anything.
The No. 13 Sooners hammered Temple 42-3 on Saturday in Philadelphia to stay unbeaten and hand the Owls their first loss of the 2025 season. Like things have went every game so far, Heisman Trophy favorite Mateer did whatever he wanted to against the defense, even if Keeler believed the results would be different for his team.
