Although it’s still only early May, that didn’t stop ESPN “Monday Night Football” play-by-play announcer Joe Buck from making his prediction for Super Bowl LX, which will take place at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Buck and his broadcast partner, Hall of Famer Troy Aikman, appeared on “Good Morning America” on Tuesday to discuss the upcoming NFL schedule release, which is set to drop in full on Wednesday. Before the interview wrapped, the duo was asked to share their early picks for who they believe will win the Lombardi Trophy—and neither one hesitated.

“I’m gonna say Buffalo finally wins it,” Buck said confidently.
Aikman, meanwhile, stayed loyal to his roots. “Cowboys, come on, come on, yeah, yeah! Come on, Stray!” he exclaimed with a laugh, directing his excitement toward former Giants legend Michael Strahan.
The Buffalo Bills have endured their fair share of heartbreaking defeats over the years, including this past season when they fell short in the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs, despite entering the playoffs as the No. 1 seed in the conference.
During the early 1990s, led by star quarterback Jim Kelly, Buffalo famously reached four consecutive Super Bowls from 1990 to 1993—only to lose each one in crushing fashion.

Despite having fielded several strong teams over the years, the Bills have often been plagued by bad luck in the postseason’s biggest moments. However, with the reigning NFL MVP Josh Allen under center and the core of their roster largely intact, expectations remain high for another deep playoff run.

It seems Joe Buck is confident in their chances, backing Buffalo to finally break through and win it all—while Troy Aikman is standing by the Dallas Cowboys, the team he led throughout his entire 12-year Hall of Fame career.
