NMPreps first look at each schedule leading up to the 2023 season. We give our best predictions and potential overall records. Schedules are submitted here.
2023 SCHEDULE
Aug. 18th - vs Artesia - Coin Flip
Aug. 25th - vs Goddard - Coin Flip
Sept. 2nd - at Volcano Vista - Underdog
Sept. 8th - at Clovis - Favorite
Sept. 15th - vs Roswell - Underdog
Sept. 29th - at Alamogordo* - Favorite
Oct. 6th - vs Organ Mountain* - Favorite
Oct. 13th - vs Centennial* - Underdog
Oct. 19th - at Las Cruces* - Coin Flip
Oct. 27th - at Hobbs* - Underdog
*District Game
Last Season: 5-5 (regular season)
Playoffs: 0-1 (5-6 overall)
Best Case Scenario: 6-4 overall. Looking at our CF, UND, FAV, the Cavemen could improve to 6-wins this season. That would be the best case scenario for the team. The kicker from 2022 to 2023 would be a win at home against Artesia in the Eddy County Rivalry game. The Cavemen fell last season 30-27 on the road.
Worst Case Scenario: 3-7 overall. Three head coaches in three years for the Cavemen. When that happens the affects to the record could take place. Add in the departure of all-state level players Dane Naylor (QB), Eli Asay (RB), and University of Arizona commit Tylen Gonzalez (DL) who have all graduated. The Cavemen made a solid hire this off-season so despite the rebuild, the Cavemen will battle in coin flip games.
