I find it odd how there are only AA and AAAA bands confirmed so far lol. Only one A and AAA band each in the rumored list now.

I find it odd how there are only AA and AAAA bands confirmed so far lol. Only one A and AAA band each in the rumored list now. Ohio A bands that participate in BOA tend to do just one event. That is usually Grand Nationals. As for no AAA, in Southwest Ohio and surrounding areas the schools tend to be smaller (A and AA) or very large by any standard other than Texas. Mason High School's student population has leveled off at just over 3500. The Lakota schools and Fairfield aren't far behind. There are relatively few that fall in the AAA range (e.g. Miamisburg).

I guess it is now time to shift to making wildly silly predictions now! As a reminder, regionals are now taking 12 finalists.
1. Carmel (Sweep) 2. Centerville 3. Kettering Fairmont 4. Carroll (IN) 5. Miamisburg 6. Beavercreek 7. Greenfield-Central 8. Franklin Central 9. Reeths-Puffer 10. Campbell County 11. Bellbrook 12. Archbishop Alter
I expect wild things to happen this year as we see how much Covid has affected groups.

Archbishop Alter I expect wild things to happen this year as we see how much Covid has affected groups. You envision Kettering performing that strongly? I don’t recall them ever out scoring the likes of Carroll, Miamisburg, Beavercreek and Greenfield-Central. I might also swap Archbishop Alter with Woodford County.

They normally start strong and I always seem to get burned by them by planning them too low in my rankings generally lol. It's so early season though that I can see Carroll ahead, but at the same time, Miamisburg is a slow starter and end hot which is also why I have KF ahead there. Aren't predictions fun?! Gets your brain thinking. Comes down to 7 people essentially in the end. And I simply don't quite know enough of Kentucky groups to find past BOA results to give a good read for Woodford Co. So it's very possible.

And now a comparison to the final confirmed/rumored list compiled by the forums prior to the schedule release. Note - this differs from what yayband914 claims above. Not on lists but attending - Anderson County, Carroll (OH), Christian Academy of Louisville "Confirmed" but not attending - Fairborn, Lake Central, Noblesville Rumored but not attending - Ada, Hamilton Southeastern, South Oldham

Oops. If I may, can I ask what the point of this is? Are we going to see how wrong or right statechamp1239 and I (and everyone else who helped contribute) were with every single official list that comes out? We’re just people completely unaffiliated with MFA that just wanted to try and compile as much information as we could with what we had (which was pretty much just band calendars and social media) for all of you, so no doubt none of them were going to be 100% accurate. But we do try our best. 😊

I have been enjoying these lists myself. Maybe they have been wrong at times but it is still fun to think about the possibilities of which bands might be attending. 🤗

Updated predictions. Seeing places 5-11 shift around is going to be a lot of fun. I could also see Miamisburg edging out Carroll for a medal. Greenfield-Central could be hampered a little bit by their early (first) performance slot, but I think they’ll do well. That 12th place spot is a wildcard between Bellbrook, Fairfield and Woodford, but I give Bellbrook the slight edge.
1. Carmel H.S., IN 2. Centerville H.S., OH 3. Carroll H.S., IN 4. Miamisburg H.S., OH 5. Greenfield-Central H.S., IN 6. Anderson County H.S., KY 7. Beavercreek H.S., OH 8. Campbell County H.S., KY 9.

Very similar to other predictions here, but a lot of that is because I'm still trying to become more familiar with the midwest and I trust y'all.

Anyone watching this show? I’m curious about how the first block went, but I also don’t want to pay an arm and a leg for one show with Box5

I'm not crazy about Carmel's music this year. I love how the band is playing but not the arrangement itself (especially Part 1). However, it's shaping up to be a design masterpiece visually. It doesn't scream GN Champion though, compared to what I saw of Avon last week or Reagan and CTJ and maybe even TWHS through videos. They'll likely hang in the same area they did in 2019.
Beavercreek took a big step up visually from their 2018 finals debut. I was impressed, and their show is a lot of fun as well. Still screams OMEA, but some BOA minded elements are creeping in. An easy finalist tonight.
