6A FOOTBALL: MUST-SEE GAMES IN WEEK 11

Week 11 of New Mexico high school football features several must-see matchups that will significantly impact the playoff race. Here are the games you can't afford to miss:

  1. Cleveland vs. Rio Rancho (Fri., 6pm): This week's marquee game brings an intense rivalry as Cleveland (6-3, 3-0) takes on Rio Rancho (7-2, 3-0) in a crucial District 1-6A showdown. Both teams are undefeated in district play, making this contest the decisive battle for the district championship. Cleveland locks up the 1-seed with the win.
  2. Centennial vs. Las Cruces (Fri., 7pm): In another high-stakes District 3-6A matchup, Centennial (6-2, 3-0) clashes with Las Cruces (5-4, 4-0). The outcome of this game will determine the district champion and have a significant impact on the playoff picture. Are the Bulldawgs (LCHS) and their 5-game win streak the real deal?
  3. La Cueva vs. Farmington (Fri., 7pm): La Cueva (6-3, 3-0) heads to Farmington (5-4) for a pivotal District 2-6A contest. With Farmington desperately needing a win to bolster their playoff hopes, the outcome of this game carries immense importance within the district.
  4. Los Lunas vs. Clovis (Fri., 7pm): The District 4-6A title hangs in the balance as Los Lunas (7-2, 3-0) takes on Clovis (4-5, 3-0). In this battle of unbeaten district teams, the victor will claim the district championship and secure a spot in the postseason.
  5. Atrisco Heritage vs. Volcano Vista (Sat., 11am): Saturday's matchup features Atrisco Heritage (5-4, 1-2) against Volcano Vista (6-3, 1-2) in a crucial District 1-6A showdown. Both teams are eager to grab a win to enhance their playoff aspirations. Atrisco Heritage is on the bubble and most likely to miss the playoffs are hoping for a major upset on Saturday morning.
  6. Sandia vs. Cibola (Thurs., 7pm): Sandia (7-2, 3-1) faces off against Cibola (0-9, 0-4) in a Thursday night district battle. Sandia aims to strengthen its position in the district standings and make a statement after suffering a 51-0 loss last week to La Cueva.
  7. Eldorado vs. West Mesa (Fri., 7pm): Eldorado (4-5, 1-2) takes on West Mesa (5-4, 0-3) in a contest that carries significant playoff implications. A loss for West Mesa could jeopardize their playoff hopes, adding extra intensity to this district matchup.
  8. Hobbs vs. Carlsbad (Fri., 7pm): Hobbs (4-5, 2-2) and Carlsbad (2-7, 1-3) square off in a district game, Hobbs looking to improve their record and playoff resume.
