Josh Allen said if he is at 100% - he will play in this game.
Josh also said his sholder still hurts on some throws.

Coach Bohl said they think he will be at 100% by the game.

Nice. But that's a big "if". JA could easily say his shoulder isn't %100 and not play like everyone is telling him to. Hope he plays

It would have been six weeks removed from the injury and if it's not 100% yet then he has bigger problems and may not get drafted anyway. This was a minor sprain from media reports when it happened and six weeks should be more then enough time for him to be 100 percent.

IDK, for the first time I am actually leaning toward believing Allen will play. According to Gagliardi, Bohl said when referring to Allen that he will be "very probable to be 100%". Bohl hasn't usually been the type to comment much on player injuries.

Honestly, the time frame for this isn't that far fetched. From everything I've seen (including his mom's facebook post), Josh suffered an AC sprain, also known as a separated shoulder. Time frames for these can vary greatly depending on what grade of sprain he suffered. It is not entirely outrageous that he is still not at 100%. If he were any other position, he could probably play, but a sprain to the throwing shoulder of the QB is a little more complicated; it reduces the types of interventions the sports medicine staff can do that they would otherwise be able to do a player at a different position.

Also, when it comes to the AC joint of a QB, there is no such thing as a minor sprain.

But then, 2 days before game: "Dang! I tweaked it at practice and it's not OK now!" That's what will happen.

Will it matter that much to the outcome since Vigen is still O-coordinator?

Yes, it matters! Wyoming is 9-3 if not for the Allen injury.
