The Burbank Coyotes are coming off a hot win against Kiona-Benton 44-8, putting Burbank at a 1-1 record. The Kittitas Coyotes are coming off a loss against Manson 38-27, making them 0-1. Last year in mid September CHS Coyotes beat Kittitas 35-13 and put up a whopping 410 total yards on the night.

Later in the year Burbank traveled back to Kittitas in the first week of November for their crossover playoff game where Kittitas shocked Burbank with a 23-8 victory.  That playoff game,  the Burbank Coyotes only had 236 yards of total offense.  This week both teams have a new look roster and the early season game should be an exciting matchup.

The “two headed monster” Elijah Kinsey and Matthew Wilder will be expected to run the ball efficiently against Kittitas. The two of them combined 212 yards and four touchdowns against the Ki Be Bears last week. The defense played very well forcing four turnovers, which included three fumbles and an interception. Burbank should be expected to stop the run and disrupt the pass against Kittitas Thursday.

Both teams have new quarterbacks and lost heavy contributors from last season.  So, who will come out on top this Thursday?
