I will say that "big package" needs work. Reminds me of the 90's teams when they had three backs in the backfield on short yardage situations.. but with a modern twist but less effective.

WOW!, That game will be talked about for decades! The interception on our 35 with 7:47 to play was huge. The final drive took 6 minutes off the clock. The 3rd and 6 call from their 40 put us inside the 5 with 2:22 on the clock. Cleveland was in desperation mode. They needed a fumble or interception. Either one stops the clock. A fumble into or interception in the end zone puts the ball on the 20 with 2 timeouts.
I was probably as surprised as anyone by the final play calling but Coach Maupin got it done.

They are going for 4th title in a Row. They have done it with multiple coaches as well, they just continue to win. It's been an impressive program and rise to the top, yes it's hard to believe they have overtaken the Southern Teams No doubt they are a much bigger team than us on both fronts, we will have to play mistake free ball and score on almost every drive and hope for a couple turnovers on their end. Last year didn't we have like 5 turnovers total ? rrobserver.com/stormcoming-a-happy-one-cleveland-61-artesia-33/I'm not too concerned win or lose this game, just don't want to see us get injured, in the past we've lost a player against them, just bad luck ? maybe. We are 0-6. If we played them 10 times they are probably winning 9 maybe we can hope for a miracle and get 1 That video was spot on was it not? someone send me my flowers please. lol

Thanks olddog Anyone notice the visitor side? Cleveland really didn't bring many fans at all, especially you got the #1 team in the state. You guys think they expected to blow us out? I saw their stud LB didn't play and I saw online they were missing a WR too, just wondering if they thought they could hold em out this game and take care of business regardless. Crispy I was thinking Cleveland may not want to play us anymore either, I know Heath didn't mind playing us but different coach and it's really a lose/lose situation for them. Still a lot of respect for their program, they been on a great run and I don't think it's over yet but kudos to our guys, right place, right time we had that bullseye on em.

Without that pick 6 and if the dogs would have scored at the end it wouldnt really have been close. That running back on Cleveland was good though. Him and that wideout are their entire team. Be funny to see them win 6A purely because they have two standout players.

Watching this video just confirmed what I already knew......Nye Estrada is one HELL of a quarterback! Damn he's good! The only thing he is lacking is size. He's more accurate than Landry....better mobility than Landry....and dare I say it.....better decision making than Landry. Like I said, size is the only thing, and maybe arm strength? But arm strength comes with size, and if he were 6-4 225 he would have D1 offers rolling in just like Landry did, maybe even more! We are really going to miss him next year. Hope he gets on somewhere like an ENMU or West Texas A&M.

I’m always one to criticize our weaknesses every year (including this year), so I like to point out when they prove me wrong. I’ve said from the beginning that we’ll be as good as our slots can take us. Ethan Conn stepped it up Friday and broke out. Cazares played solid as well. They will need to have those type games vs Roswell too. Galindo has been the difference maker so far this year (duel threat running/receiving), and a threat to score on every play.
Still have some stuff to work on of course to be the complete team we want to be. Defense is playing well over all, offense seems to be improving weekly. Special teams could be a hiccup. Not near where we were last year. Field goal attempts are dreadful. Even extra points get hairy. Punt blocking needs to improve. Kick offs were terrible vs Cleveland. Giving up awful field position. Can’t continually give Roswell a short field, especially since they kick 40 yard field goals- and kick off through the end zone. So we can scratch starburst off the arsenal.
On a side note: I agree with the post above. Nye has proved to be a magician. Very unfortunate that his size will hold him back, because the dude can play football.

Hope he gets on somewhere like an ENMU or West Texas A&M. I don’t know enough about recruiting or what college football is looking for, but does the fact that Artesia hasn’t kept offensive statistics on MaxPreps have any consequences for next level looks? I would think it can’t matter too much. However almost all media coverage on any football team and/or player uses MaxPreps as the reference. I know LeRoch had an offer to ENMU, but not sure what other players are next level, or if any are even interested.

Luckily NMpreps keeps decent statistics, and if they want to play at a smaller school, Hudl is a good tool for compiling footage. The kids basically just need to put together a decent highlight reel and they can use the various platforms to promote themselves. I remember coach Houghtaling saying that a couple guys in the 90s (QB and slot) put together a highlight VHS that was good to get them a place over at NMII.

Diego Wesson has couple offers in Texas. Juan Diego Duran has an offer to play corner at ENMU but is taking an offer to run track somewhere is what I was told

Cleveland this year has a great team overall (speed/size), we simply outplayed and outcoached them, the boys wanted it more than they did. That’s how the ball rolls
