Anyone here know the Schedule for the Broken Arrow Invitational? It has turned into a clinic for 3 bands total. Gates open at 6:30, first performance is at 7:30. Muskogee Collinsville Tulsa Memorial Not sure if only 3 bands registered or what, but those 3 bands will have some awesome time working with that judging panel they have.

Regarding your post on the previous thread, Union 6th? I think the earth would stop spinning.

Regarding your post on the previous thread, Union 6th? I think the earth would stop spinning. It's a hot take, but Jenks and Bixby outscored them by a noticeable amount last week and Owasso looked like they could have at least taken second at that contest, if not first. I haven't seen Mustang yet but I hear they are very good this year. I hope Union keeps improving this year and is able to medal at OBA, but I have heard from a few different people that there is a lot of drama with that program right now, which is really unfortunate.

I was just able to watch Mustang's show and I could see them getting anywhere from 3rd to 5th, but this is another really good year for Jenks. I think they could top their 2018 show this year. Mustang does look very good though. Who knows, maybe this is their year!

We'll have to wait and see how Mustang does at St. Louis, but I could see them placing as high as 3rd here.

OBA 6A Finals Predictions 1st Broken Arrow 2nd Jenks 3rd Mustang 4th Owasso 5th Union 6th Bixby 7th Edmond Santa fe 8th Choctaw 9th Stillwater 10th Edmond Memorial 11th Southmoore 12th Deer Creek
Visual- Jenks/Broken Arrow Music- Jenks/Broken Arrow General Effect- Broken Arrow 9-12 is a shake up in my opinion, 5-8 can go in any order, mustang and Owasso could flip but I think mustangs edging them out this year. Jenks is looking like 2018, probably better, really wish they went to more things this year to see. broken arrow obviously in first but maybe something gets interesting this year. I do think Jenks can take a caption this year but a Broken Arrow sweep is still likely.

Prelim Captions 6A1 1st Broken Arrow 2nd Jenks 3rd Mustang Visual - Broken Arrow/Jenks Music- Jenks/BA General Effect- Broken Arrow 6A2 1st Choctaw 2nd Bixby 3rd Stillwater Visual- Choctaw Music- Bixby General Effect Choctaw I don't think Jenks has a chance to take any captions this year. BA is just too good, and Jenks hasn't been to a contest since the Owasso Invitational. I also feel like Mustang could kick Jenks out of second. That's just speculation though. While I think Choctaw is great this year, I don't think they could beat Bixby. I could see them taking the GE caption though. Bixby's visual program is just too good for Choctaw to take visual (Bixby got 6th in Visual at STL), and Bixby plays better than Choctaw, but the Judges don't seem to like Bixby's show design, so GE seems like it would be the caption up for the taking, and I see Choctaw taking music GE no matter what because they're so dang loud. I haven't seen ESF since the Owasso Invitational, but I think you're right to have them above Choctaw. If they have cleaned up really well in the past few weeks, I could see them as high as 6th. I'm excited to see how 9th-12th plays out. I definitely expect to see Yukon in finals, but it's also difficult to see Deer Creek out, and Edmond North is on the bubble too. This OBA is going to be so fun to watch! The only SOLID prediction I have is that BA takes first. Past that, it seems like anything could happen.

Final 2021 6A OBA Predictions 1. Broken Arrow H.S. 2. Mustang H.S. 3. Jenks H.S. 4. Owasso H.S. 5. Bixby H.S. 6. Union H.S. 7. Edmond Santa Fe H.S. 8. Choctaw H.S. 9. Edmond Memorial H.S. 10. Southmoore H.S. 11. Yukon H.S. 12. Deer Creek H.S.
Music - Broken Arrow H.S. Visual - Broken Arrow H.S. General Effect - Broken Arrow H.S.
General thoughts: Broken Arrow will win and sweep captions. I think Mustang's push to Grand Nationals will give them the edge over Jenks for 2nd, although Jenks is having an incredible season! We have not seen them in a few weeks, so who knows what surprises they have in store. Owasso is a pretty solid 4th for me, although I could see Bixby creeping above them if the judges like their show design. I put Union in 6th because I feel like their reputation has gotten them a lot of help in the past, and I just do not see ESF or Choctaw overtaking them (although I personally think both of them should be higher). Santa Fe and Choctaw are pretty evenly matched I believe, but I put Santa Fe just barely over Choctaw for funsies. 9-12 could be completely different bands since this season has been so hard to predict, so they could just a easily land in completely different placements. Memorial always has a way of scoring solidly in the late season, especially at OBA, which is why I placed them in 9th. I know Yukon killed it at Renegade Review, but I put them in 11th out of caution from their lower scores at Mustang. I think they have cleaned up a relatively difficult program nicely, so I do see them in finals, and I could easily see them way higher than 11th as well. I put Deer Creek in finals for funsies as well, because I would love to see it. I could see that spot going to Edmond North or Stillwater as well though, so we will just have to wait and see! It is going to be such an interesting and exciting competition. Can't think of a year in recent years with as many high scoring bands and so much uncertainty surrounding OBA.

Until last year when mustang broke top 5, there was always a distinct top 5 with a noticeable gap between 5th and 6th, but this year the top 8 are just so solid. Even past the top 8, Stillwater and Yukon have really impressed me, and Edmond Memorial, Southmoore, and Deer Creek are looking amazing as well. I hope OK bands keep improving. It would be nice to see a couple more OK bands break into the national scene.

Tulsa has had that rivalry really boosting the band scene for a long time, but this is year is one of the first times that multiple OKC bands (Mustang, Choctaw, ESF) have a chance to be right up there with the incredible Tulsa bands. I hope a culture of competition starts developing in OKC and we start seeing improvement all over! Not to mention, some bands which used to perhaps be called locks for OBA finals such as Edmond Memorial and Southmoore are not as comfortable, which will hopefully motivate them to be even better to earn their spot in finals in the future

Tulsa has BA, Union, Jenks, Bixby, and Owasso, and the only other band I could see becoming a major player in the Tulsa area is Coweta, but they seem to actually be declining. OKC has Mustang as a consistent major player with Choctaw and ESF making a name for themselves. I could totally see Southmoore, Edmond Memorial, and Yukon stepping up their game in the next few years with Edmond North and Piedmont not far behind.

OKC has Mustang as a consistent major player with Choctaw and ESF making a name for themselves. I could totally see Southmoore, Edmond Memorial, and Yukon stepping up their game in the next few years with Edmond North and Piedmont not far behind. And remember when Moore was up there in 6A ranks(early to mid-2000s)? Wish that would happen again. I can't place Union at this contest. They could be 5th-8th, IMO. I could also see Edmond Santa Fe sneaking up to 5th depending on how they and the other bands do. This is definitely the most competitive 6A state contest in quite some time. It's also Bixby's last year in 6A-II for prelims. They'll be competing with the big dogs in 6A-I starting next year.

We drove over just to see Broken Arrow this morning and I am blown away. I am certainly no expert but it’s the best I have heard them sound. They have upped their music game. Their GE and Visual is off the charts as usual.

OKC has more potential than Tulsa IMO. Tulsa has BA, Union, Jenks, Bixby, and Owasso, and the only other band I could see becoming a major player in the Tulsa area is Coweta, but they seem to actually be declining.

If I remember right, Moore was one dropped drumstick away from winning OBA in 1994. The drummer had a solo and broke ranks to grab his stick. That was enough to get Union ahead of Moore and win state. And once Moore got split up, it gutted their band program for quite some time.
