Wyoming Football Roster Math
As promised here is a quick written breakdown of where Wyoming stands with the football roster and the drive to get down to 105 before the first game of the season. After the December signing day, portal season and February signing day the Wyoming Cowboys stand at 120 players. That is 15 above the new mandated number and you can see the position breakdown below: Here are a few quick thoughts on how Wyoming gets to 105 or below: There are about 14 position player walk-ons who will have to seriously outperform scholarship players to earn a spot on the 105-man roster so that right there gets you to 106 but I'm sure a few will stick. It's being reported that Wyoming wants to add 3-4 transfers when the portal opens up for the spring...
Wyoming Wrestling Finding Their Moxy
Hey Wyoming Wrestling Fans! It’s been a minute since I wrote about our Cowboys, but they have won four of their last five duals with some of the boys on some real winning streaks. I was concerned that more duals on the road were going to be tough and ruin confidence, however, I was proven wrong. Wyoming won a tough dual and a come from behind dual against Oregon State. They got down 7-0 quick but Cole Brooks set the tone and wrestled the best I have seen him wrestle in some time this season. Gabe followed up with a Gabe match of going down 9-2 but winning 11-10. The OSU wrestler he defeated recently MD’d Jordan Abas from Stanford. Eddie and Joey would put the dual out of reach with a MD and Fall. OSU was chippy and sounded like their...
Pokes in the Pros: Divisional Weekend
- From UW Press Release - 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...
Wyoming Wrestling Mid-Year
Hey There Cowboy Wrestling Fans! I want to apologize for the long delay; I have been moving to a new house and starting an internship. We are finally settled in just in time for dual season followed by the Big 12 and NCAA run for the boys. Let’s start with the bad news in Jore Volk has been ruled out for the season due to an injury sustained against Spratley. This team has been the walking wounded throughout the year thus far with the following men missing time: Ethan Ducca – coming off knee surgery and at a new weight class 174 Riley Davis – had a season ending shoulder injury last year and it appears to still affect him. He has been at 174 and 184 this year for the pokes. Eddie Neitenbach – the freshmen burst onto the scene...

Pokes in the Pros: Week 17
- From UW Press Release - It may resemble directions on a shampoo bottle, but that’s the most appropriate way to describe what Josh Allen is doing. It’s rinse, lather and repeat. Allen made history in the Bills’ 40-14 victory over the New York Jets on Sunday, which locked Buffalo into the AFC’s No. 2 seed. His big game gave him 40 touchdowns in 2024, marking the fifth straight season of at least 40 touchdowns, and that’s the first time that feat has been accomplished in the history of the game. Allen’s final stat line Sunday was 16-for-27 for 182 yards and two touchdowns. He added 17 yards on five carries with another score. For the season, Allen is 307-for-483 for 3,731 yards with 28 touchdowns and just six picks, while adding 531...
Pokes in the Pros: Week 16
- From UW Press Release - It wasn’t his sharpest game of the season, but at this point in the season it’s more about the end result than it is a beauty contest. That result was a 24-21 comeback victory for Buffalo over New England. Josh Allen was 16-for-29 for 154 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He added 30 yards on six carries. For the season, the former University of Wyoming quarterback is 291-for-456 for 3,549 yards with 26 touchdowns and just six picks. He’s rushed it 97 times for 514 yards and 11 scores. Buffalo, which is 12-3, hosts the New York Jets in Week 17. The Bills still have a shot at the AFC’s No. 1 seed and are also closing in on locking up no worse than the No. 2 seed. Below is a list of the other former...
Pokes in the Pros: Week 15
From UW Athletics: LARAMIE, Wyoming (12/17/24) – It was the most expensive ticket to date for an NFL game this season. It featured the hottest team in the league playing at home where they hadn’t lost all year. All eyes were on Detroit for its game against Buffalo on Sunday afternoon. And at the end of day, it’s all but a certainty that the Most Valuable Player in 2024-25 will be awarded to a former University of Wyoming student-athlete. Josh Allen was as sharp as he could be for the second consecutive week. He was 23-for-34 for 362 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran it 11 times for 68 yards and two more scores.

Pokes in the Pros: Week 13
