NORMAN, Okla -- — Oklahoma has taken a critical step in its quest to reach the College Football Playoff.
John Mateer threw two touchdown passes, and the eighth-ranked Sooners defeated No. 23 Missouri 17-6 on Saturday.
The Sooners, coming off road wins over Tennessee and Alabama, claimed their third straight victory over a ranked opponent and their fifth over a team that was ranked when they played. The Sooners (9-2, 5-2 SEC, No. 8 CFP) likely will make the playoff field with a win at home against LSU next Saturday.
Oklahoma gained just 276 total yards. It wasn't flashy, but the Sooners got what they needed.
