2A New Mexico HS Football Bracket Breakdown

The 2021 New Mexico high school football playoffs are here and we take a look at each bracket and give our predictions. #nmpreps

Bracket
#1 Jal (8-1) vs #8 Estancia (5-4), 6PM
#2 Tularosa (6-0) vs #7 Lordsburg (5-3), 7PM
#3 Eunice (6-3) vs #6 Hagerman (4-3), 6PM
#4 Texico (4-4) vs #5 Capitan (7-2), 6PM

Ranking What Games to Watch
1) Eunice vs Hagerman: The game to watch will be a re-match from an October 15th 6-point Eunice win, in Eunice. Conagher Pierce (2022) is averaging over 240 yards per game this season as QB-1 for the Eunice Cardinals.

2) Tularosa vs Lordsburg: Another re-match game in the first round with Lordsburg looking to erase a 27-0 loss on October 15th.

3) Texico vs Capitan: The two teams didn't meet this season. The Texico Wolverines look to use their high powered offense (41.4 average) in the first round.

4) Jal vs Estancia: Estancia has played well winning the last four games and putting up impressive numbers. However, Jal is on another level this season behind running backs Alexavier Carreon (2023) and Jacob Lujan (2023) both of which have gone for over 1,100 yards this season and a combined 34 touchdowns.

Lines
Eunice -3.5
Tularosa -14.5
Texico -19.5
Jal -21.5

Most Likely 5-8 Seed to Win
Hagerman is the obvious pick here with how close the first game was and how well they have played as of late. With a 3.5 line, it should be close but our official NMPreps upset radar is only at a 20% chance of an upset. So tread lightly on this pick this week in Pick 'Em.

NMPreps Bracket Predictions
Jal over Estancia, 44-22
Tularosa over Lordsburg, 35-23
Texico over Capitan, 33-19
Eunice over Hagerman, 24-14
