Keys Wins
La Cueva, Cibola, & Centennial: We had Centennial at the 3-seed in this weeks Playoff Picture feature. They helped their resume with a potential DC win over Mayfield. La Cueva gets a signature win and Cibola beating Eldorado will help keep them in the top-5 seed section. La Cueva now the favorite to win the Metro East District?

Wins Outside the Top-20
Valencia has been struggling for awhile but a nice quality win over Portales will help get things going. Shank is one of the best at building things up.

Robertson earned a resume win over Ruidoso, 12-7. Raton flexed again, 44-0 (vs Tucumcari), and West Las Vegas continues to roll. WLV running back Damien Gallegos had 6-touchdowns!

Upsets this Week
West Mesa beat Sandia in the Spring and they do it again in the Fall. Sandia bubble has a leak now. Santa Teresa earned a huge class win over Alamogordo, 30-29 and could have put them IN the playoffs, as of now.

Top Newcomers this Season in New Mexico High School Football

Top Newcomers this Season in New Mexico High School Football

Today, we take a look at some of the top newcomers in New Mexico high school football after three weeks of action. #nmpreps

Adam Aguilera, WR (2022)
School: Lovington HS
Scoop: The Wildcats continue their winning ways and Aguilera is off to a top season. Aguilera has 301-receiving yards and 3-touchdowns.

Alexavier Carreon, RB (2023)
School: Jal HS
Scoop: We all know about his brother but younger brother Alexavier is off to a stellar season with 684-yards and 11-touchdowns.

Jacob Pino, QB (2023)
School: Bernalillo HS
Scoop: The Bernalillo Spartans were expected to take a dip but after three weeks have played well with a 3-0 start. Pino has 645-yards and 7-passing touchdowns.

Week 4 New Mexico HS Football Playoff Picture

How we did it
Projected District Finish
Head to Head (after three weeks)
Current Rating (and projected movement with district projection)

6A FOOTBALL
#1 Cleveland (Bye)
#2 Rio Rancho (Bye)
#3 Centennial (Bye)
#4 La Cueva (Bye)
#5 Cibola vs #12 Santa Fe
#6 Eldorado vs #11 Clovis
#7 Las Cruces #10 Carlsbad
#8 Hobbs vs #9 Volcano Vista

First Out: Sandia

Figuring it Out: Centennial moved into our favorite from the southern district and pushes them to a potential three seed. La Cueva has the edge on Cibola and Las Cruces and we predict them beating out Eldorado.

5A FOOTBALL
#1 Goddard (Bye)
#2 Los Lunas (Bye)
#3 Farmington (Bye)
#4 Mayfield (Bye)
#5 Artesia vs #12 Capital
#6 Piedra Vista vs #11 Belen
#7 Deming vs #10 Santa Teresa
#8 Roswell vs #9 Alamogordo

First Out: Valley

Figuring it Out: Roswell is the big question mark here. If they finish third, beating Alamogordo during district play they could likely be a 2/3-win team with a first round home game. Tough schedule indeed but they could be looking at an over/under of 2.5 wins at this point. More to shake out with the 10-12 teams along with outsiders Valley, Los Alamos and Miyamura.

4A FOOTBALL
#1 Lovington (Bye)
#2 Bloomfield (Bye)
#3 Albuquerque Academy (Bye)
#4 Ruidoso (Bye)
#5 Silver vs #12 Pojoaque Valley
#6 St. Pius X vs #11 Valencia
#7 Bernalillo vs #10 Kirtland Central
#8 Moriarty vs #9 Portales

First Out: Grants

Figuring it Out: First, let's start with our district champions - Lovington, Bloomfield, Abq Academy, and Moriarty. Moriarty may be the only potential DC on the road in the first round with Portales potentially (likely) winning their next five games. Portales needs the 9.17 game against SPX and they are going to get a first round home game plus the Rams could still end up finishing 1-4 in that district. Here is what we know in 4A. Lovington is very good, Bloomfield continues to excel (we were wrong that they would be rebuilding), and spots 3-12 could shake up by the week.
