Friday's contest might be decided in the trenches. Lebanon has been unstoppable on the ground this season, having averaged 272.6 rushing yards per game.

Everything went Lebanon's way against Glendale in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, as Lebanon made off with a 49-28 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Yellowjackets since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
