David Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Ocean Springs vs d’Iberville in a battle of undefeated teams. Greyhounds offense at 46 points a game against a Warriors D that traditionally is tough on passing offenses. Probably the best QB out of a bunch to choose from down south in Bray Hubbard. O.S. defense still untested but fast to the ball, and a d’Iberville running game that’s predictable but powerful. Winner of this one is probably the favorite to win district in the early polling.

You’re a Picayune fan, so I assume that you saw d’Iberville beat your guys by running the ball every play and playing good defense. O.S. will have to load up the defense up front because they aren’t that big or physical. A couple of turnovers there could make the difference. On offense, the Greyhounds might have the most weapons I’ve seen this year. They rushed for over 300 yards last week, but only had 3 incomplete passes. They actually have a ball control offense using short passes and out patterns until the defense comes up, then their speed gets behind you. I’m a defense fan, so I believe that if the Warriors are as good as advertised, they could slow down that O.S. offense, but I’m not sure if the Hounds have punted more than 6 times all year. Game’s in d’Iberville. That might be the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vott Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Winner of this game makes them the 2nd best team in 6a south behind Oak Grove. This could be the year Region 4 6a makes a deep run in playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 This game has been a good one over the last several years. Dville is at home with about a 17 regular season game current winning streak. Only loss for OS in regular season last year and a half was to the Warriors. Should be a good game and wouldn't be shocked either way. Strength of OS is offense, strength of Dville is defense! Home field may be the difference but I know OS will be loud and have the visitor's side at Buddy Singleton field at full capacity! I'll go with my Warriors in a close one! Go Warriors!

Note to Harrison County schools: feel free to add an thousand extra seats to the visitor’s side somehow so that we don’t have to arrive two hours early to get a seat or watch from the end zone. Way too small for a 6A program. Edited September 27, 2021 by David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last decade has seen huge crowds, and with our new stadium providing the visitor’s side with great seats, I just wish it was easier over there. They have one of the best atmospheres for a game around. With a great traveling crowd, both teams will be playing in front of the biggest crowds of the year.

I would like to see Diberville win this game and good luck to yall but I don't think they will keep Ocean Springs out of the endzone Diberville has a real good defense but Ocean Springs offense seems to be a animal this year.

David Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 Hard to figure out the favorite in this one. All I know is that O.S. has improved a bunch since last year’s close game, so d’Iberville must be better too if they’re going to win. The Clinton game in Ocean Springs early this year was a good comparison to this one, and it went to overtime. But, they passed the ball a little more than the Warriors will, and are probably better overall. So the Greyhounds will have to do long drives with their ball control passing, then catch em sleeping with a long ball. Hubbard will be the best player on the field, and his running means that you can’t rush the passer without accounting for that. Some of you Warrior fans fill us in on their team.

RUNNINGMAN67 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 D’Iberville by two TD’s. Coach Dolan gonna coach circles around OS’s coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastfootballfanman Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Ocean Springs offense is LEGIT. Probably the best I have seen on the coast in some time. They can do it all. For me it is a toss up. My nephew graduated from d'Iberville this past year, so I no longer have an allegiance to them so it is hard for me to make a definite pick. lol I will have something picked closer to Friday!

Tiburon Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Hounds. That offense is too good. I don't thing Warriors will be able to stop them enough to keep pace. should be a good game though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogwarriorbandman Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Early preview of which team comes out of Coast 6A for sure. Should be a great game. I will be watching this one for sure on NFHS. I will go with OS by 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNINGMAN67 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 I drove over to D-Ville the past couple days to watch em practice. I think Coach Dolan has a couple tricks up his sleeve for the Hounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slicklizard Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Ocean Springs used the whole field on offense when I seen them earlier in the year. That said Dolan has been around the block and he will take away what Ocean Springs likes to do on offense which is make everything go through the QB. If their coach doesn’t have some new wrinkles to score with D’Iberville will take the air out of the football, control the clock and win this game.

Wareaglefan1us Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Coach Dolan is one of the the best defensive minds in the business. Ocean Springs is very talented on offense. I buy into defense wins championships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted October 1, 2021 Author Share Posted October 1, 2021 Game day on the Coast! Beautiful weather and a packed house to see two really good teams! Best band in the state, fishing in the morning, good food, and friends to go to the game with. Don’t get no better anywhere in the state.

Too bad the OS band can't do their halftime show due to Homecoming! Warrior fans missing out on a great show! Wish d'ville would do Homecoming pregame but I guess agreeing on something would be rare these days! Plenty of fireworks during the game though I'm sure! Good luck to both teams!

Wait, you’re telling me that d’Iberville picked O.S. for homecoming! What kind of disrespect is that? I bet that’s been posted in the dressing room this week. The Ocean Springs band is worth the price of admission, and keeping them off the field is a big disappointment. I don’t know how that huge band fits into that bandbox set of bleachers on the visitor’s side anyway, but if they are there, it adds to the big game atmosphere. O.S. did their homecoming festivities pregame last week, and let Hancock’s band perform during halftime. I wasn’t a band kid, but they’re as much a part of these games as anybody.

I like new policy of putting your band in bleachers in the end zone so that your home crowd can hear the songs better, plus it gives you more seating for your big games. O.S. pretty much fills up the new home side stadium already, and a return match of these two in the playoffs would break attendance records. I can’t believe that I’m talking band trash talk on a football site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
