Harris Out, Mateer Under Pressure | Oklahoma Sooners Football News

Oklahoma’s loss to Michigan took a devastating turn when wide receiver Trell Harris suffered a lacerated internal organ, sidelining him for the season — a massive blow to an already struggling offense. With key targets like Parker Livingstone faltering and Elijah Thomas underutilized despite his explosive potential, quarterback John Mateer faces mounting pressure to deliver precision passes. Coach Brent Venables and OC Ben Arbuckle admit the offense is inconsistent, with missed “easy layups” costing crucial momentum. The Sooners’ fate hinges on Mateer’s ability to distribute the ball and unlock their receivers — especially Isaiah Sategna and Rocky Beers — to keep defenses off balance and salvage their upcoming showdown against New Mexico.
