RANKING THE TOP 6A GAMES THIS WEEK
THE BEST OF THE REST: 4A - 2A
Post Yours.
- Cleveland (6-0, 1-0) at Cibola (3-3, 0-1): The Storm are going to be at least two touchdown favorites but Cibola showed a lot of fight last week against Rio Rancho.
- Las Cruces (3-3, 1-0) at Hobbs (3-3, 0-0): This one has playoff implications all over it and a first round home game is on the line.
- Clovis (1-4, 1-0) at Santa Fe (5-2, 1-2): Wouldn't it be crazy to read a Santa Fe victory over Clovis? This one lost some hype as Santa Fe was upset last week but Clovis still alive for a playoff bid.
- Eldorado (4-3, 2-1) at Manzano (1-4, 0-0): Manzano finally gets the win, can they get an upset win over Eldorado?
- Centennial (5-1, 1-0) at Carlsbad (2-4, 0-1): I don't think we will see much here outside of knowing what we already know - Centennial a top-four favorite and Carlsbad continuing to drop come district play.
- Sandia (2-4, 1-0) at Albuquerque (2-4, 0-2): The Bulldogs came close to upsetting Clovis, Sandia upset Santa Fe, will we see another shake up.
- Organ Mountain (2-3, 0-1) at Gadsden (3-4): This should be a district game but it is good for both squads that we still get it.
- Volcano Vista (4-2, 1-0) at Atrisco Heritage (3-3, 0-1): District game but Volcano Vista likely to get a nice jump in district play at 2-0 before facing the top three teams.
- Rio Rancho (5-0, 1-0) at West Mesa (2-4, 0-1): We are likely to be home early on Saturday as Rio Rancho is on another level this season.
- Rio Grande (0-6) at Santa Teresa (5-1, 0-0): I guess this one counts as a 6A game although Rio is an independent and the fact that Santa Teresa is going to be a 7-touchdown favorite.
- Goddard (4-1) at Mayfield (2-4): This one has top-four seed implications to it. Goddard dropped their first game of the season last week and Mayfield still searching for a key win after going (0-4) to ranked teams (NMPreps20).
- Piedra Vista (4-3, 1-0) at Capital (3-3, 0-0): This district contest has playoff talk all over it as both are still holding out hope for a first round playoff game.
- Roswell (2-4) at Dumas, Texas (2-2): The intriguing part of this game for us is on the Coyotes and their in-season build. They started (0-4) but have back-to-back wins heading into this contest.
- Belen (4-2, 1-0) vs Del Norte (1-5, 0-0): Del Norte opens district play this week taking on a Belen team currently riding a four-game win streak. Belen playing for a top-8 seed, Del Norte fighting for their season.
- Chaparral (0-6) at Cathedral, Texas (4-2): The Chaparral Lobos are struggling again this season and fighting out of the cellar. Cathedral playing back-to-back games against New Mexico teams after falling to 3A St. Michael's last week.
- Miyamura (3-4, 0-1) at Farmington (7-0, 1-0): This one will be done early, it's district time. Farmington has one of the best offensive units in 5A football and the reason they are ranked number one.
- Rio Grande (0-6) at Santa Teresa (5-1): Santa Teresa will roll all night in this game as Rio Grande continues to struggle and riding an 8-game losing streak.
THE BEST OF THE REST: 4A - 2A
- Jal (5-1) at Eunice (4-2): Yup, this 2A game is the one to watch this week in this section. 1 vs 2. Possible State Championship preview. Put the oil down and find a seat.
- Robertson (6-1) at Raton (7-0): Can the Tigers double down against Vegas teams?
- Albuquerque Academy (6-1) at Valencia (5-2): DC up for grabs.
- Silver (5-1) at Taos (2-4): Is Silver a top-four seed in 4A?
- St. Pius X (4-2) at Bernalillo (4-3): Pius a top-four seed and possible DC?
- West Las Vegas (5-1) at Dexter (3-2): Playoffs? Who can earn a top-8 seed and host the first round?
- Capitan (5-1) at Tularosa (3-0): Tularosa is still ranked third in 2A but we are curious if they can keep it up after a month off of games.
- Moriarty (2-3) at Ruidoso (3-3): Is this one taking place?
- Thoreau (4-2) at Newcomb (2-4): Thoreau has DC on their mind and the playoffs.
- Santa Rosa (3-4) at Clayton (3-3): Playoff chatter and playoff bids up for grabs. Only 4 at-large bids in 2A football open.
- Espanola Valley (0-6) at Navajo Prep (4-2): Navajo Prep should move along with ease.
- St. Michael's (4-2) at Santa Fe Indian (5-2): Top ranked Horsemen should move along in this one.
- Loving (1-6) at Hagerman (3-1): Hagerman earned a nice win last week and hoping for a playoff spot.
- Cuba (2-3) at McCurdy (2-4): This one should go in favor of Cuba as district position is at play.
- Bloomfield (5-1) at Shiprock (0-6): Done by mercy rule.
- Aztec (2-5) at Gallup (0-7): Done by mercy rule
- Laguna-Acoma (1-5) at Estancia (3-4): The Estancia Bears are prepping for the playoffs over a struggling Hawks team.
- Mecalero Apache (0-5) at Lordsburg (4-1): Should be done by the half.
- Zuni (2-3) at Wingate (0-4): District cellar dweller game.
- Crownpoint (2-4) vs JV Team: When you need a game.
- Questa (0-3) at Escalante (3-3): Is Questa done for the year again?
