10/13 - at Roswell - COIN
10/20 - vs Goddard - COIN
10/27 - vs Mayfield - COIN/FAVORITE
2022 Record: 11-2 overall, 3-0 district
Post Season: State Champs
Best Case Scenario: 9-1 overall. Two losses last season -- Cleveland and Hobbs -- both of which are 6A programs. Carlsbad (30-27) is the other game that was within a score last season. Non-district schedule against 5A/4A teams the Bulldogs went 4-0 and outscored opponents 205-22 (Belen 44-0, Deming 57-7, Lovington 53-15, and Santa Teresa 51-0). The same should go the same this season.
Worst Case Scenario: 4-6 overall. Should we even continue? Yes, in 98% of the features there would be a chance at a "worst" case scenario but it would take a complete breakdown for that to happen to the Bulldogs. Those chances of that are very slim.
