Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer named to O'Brien Award watch list
Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer was one of 36 players named to the Davey O'Brien Award watch list on Thursday. The O'Brien Award is given to the nation's top quarterback at the conclusion of each season. The list can change at midseason, when players may be added or removed, and the 35-quarterback class will be named October 28. After that, the list narrows to semifinalists on November 12 and a group of three finalists on November 25. The winner will be presented with the award during the College Football Awards on December 12. Mateer, a transfer from Washington State, is one of six quarterbacks who were named semifinalists last year. The others are Penn State's Drew Allar, Navy's Blake Horvath, SMU's Kevin Jennings, Clemson's Cade Klubnik, and Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia. Cam Ward won the award last year and was subsequently taken first overall in the NFL Draft. Mateer led FBS in total touchdowns last year with the Cougars, throwing for 29 scores and running for another 15. He followed his offensive coordinator, Ben Arbuckle, to Oklahoma via the transfer portal after OU coach Brent Venables hired Arbuckle as the Sooners' new offensive coordinator in December. Seven SEC quarterbacks, including Mateer and Pavia, were named to the initial list. Taylen Green (Arkansas), DJ Lagway (Florida), Arch Manning (Texas), Garrett Nussmeier (LSU), and LaNorris Sellers (South Carolina) are the others. Four Oklahoma quarterbacks have won the award since its inception in 1977. Jason White won it in back-to-back years in 2003 and 2004, Sam Bradford won it in 2008, and then Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray each won the award in 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Allar named to Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award watch list
Even in the preseason, Penn State and its players have been receiving hype and accolades left and right. And no one player has received as much hype as senior QB Drew Allar. Going into his final year at Happy Valley, Allar is set for a career-defining season that could see his draft stock rise exponentially. Witn him being tabbed with many different quarterback watch list honors, the media certainly expect nothing less. The newest addition to Drew Allar's preseason resume may not be the most prestigious, but it is another feather in his cap. The Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award has been around for almost 40 years, and in that time, has honored countless young college football athletes who are strong leaders, good of character, and are academically sound as well. Allar displays all these traits and more. Should he live up to the preseason buzz, he may just walk away with it. This is not the only award Allar could be up for this season. He has been nominated for awards that also have more to do with his on-field success as well. He has already been named to the Davey O'Brien, Manning, Maxwell and Walter Camp Player of the year award watch lists, a year after being named a Davey O'Brien semifinalist. While not named to any specific preseason All-American lists, he will be looking to get into a postseason squad after being named an All-Big Ten honorable mention in the two years he has started. Ultimately, any awards Allar wins will come down to his pedigree and overall play. He is already the most efficient Penn State quarterback, ranking first in completion percentage all time. However, his performance both on and off the field will have to be particularly stellar to contend for the Golden Arm. Allar can't just be extraordinary. He must be exemplary. With this team by his side, he certainly will have the chance to be.
