2024 NEW MEXICO FOOTBALL TOP 25 STUDENT SECTION PRESEASON RANKINGS
In 2015, yours truly began covering Student Sections in Orange County, California. We expanded to Southern California in 2017 and in 2021, we added four more states and added 15 more states. We went to 40 states two years ago.
We went to all 50 states in winter of 2023. No one has ever done that before…until now!
This is still a one-man operation for the most part, but we have some help with some partners on Instagram like OC Student Sections, Stadium Geeks, Maryland Student Section Rater, NorCal Student Sections and many more.
I know that Student Sections have a lot of work to do to get the students to the games to cheer on their classmates and go along with the theme and make sure they don’t cause trouble. These student sections deserve recognition.
We will kick off the Student Section season with Preseason Football Student Section Rankings. REMEMBER, this is a PREVIEW. It is merely a prediction. The real rankings come out in November or December.
If you feel your student section isn’t ranked high enough or not ranked at all, let us know and we’ll keep a close eye on them.
Every week, we will also have Student Section of the Week for each state. Once you win Student Section of the Week, you can’t win it again, but you still have to battle for the top spot in your state and perhaps the Nation as we will also name a Football Student Section National Champion.
We continue with the 2024 Football Student Section Season with a preview of New Mexico.
New Mexico has about one or two Student Sections that are potential powerhouses where a good nine can battle amongst each other, but at some point one of these Student Sections will have to be a powerhouse in the fall. If they can be like the Student Sections they are in the winter, this could be a fun battle!
Last Football season, we had St. Michael’s Blue Crew as the top Football Student Section in New Mexico. The Blue Crew took this one easily, but this won’t be easy in 2024. New Mexico has some good Student Sections and with solid group of kids and a strong social media game, someone might take them down, but we’ll have to see.
In each state, we will name one student section to look out for. A student section that doesn’t get talked about a lot by us or others and for New Mexico, we have to go with the Centennial. They showed off some school spirit last season and they can hang. Can they hang with the very best of them? Perhaps. As long as they show it off on social media they should be fine.

Will Centennial make a big splash in 2024 or will the Blue Crew repeat as the best in The Land of Enchantment? Let’s find out.

This might be a repeat as I only see two other Student Sections that can make a splash here, but anything is possible, but for right now, I feel like the Blue Crew can repeat as Football Student Section State Champions.
