LARAMIE, Wyoming (1/20/25) – The University of Wyoming is still alive in the NFL playoffs. Former Wyoming quarterback, Josh Allen, and Buffalo held on for a 27-25 victory over Baltimore in the Divisional Round.

Sunday night’s game was perfectly built for a guy who used to sling it all over the High Plains. It was cold and snowy in Orchard Park, and while that may have tempered the stat line, it didn’t keep Allen from being effective.

He finished the game 16-for-22 for 127 yards. Allen was a workhorse on the ground, carrying it 10 times for 20 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

The Bills advance to the AFC Championship for the second time in Allen’s tenure. They did so in 2021, as well, where they fell at Kansas City, 38-24.

Buffalo will, once again, travel to play the top-seeded Chiefs on Sunday at 4:30 p.m. The Bills defeated Kansas City during the regular-season, 30-21, in Buffalo.
