ummm... ok,... not wanting to upset anyone... really. No one is upset. People on here sometimes get passionate about predictions. ah.. ok, i have a little different experience with people saying ... "Ummm" before they try and make a point. got it. So .. after looking around i have noticed sarcasm is popular on these boards... that's cool.. got the gist now.

Can confirm that MSD’s flight made it out this morning. that is just great to hear... nice to be away from horrible weather and focusing on band competition.. as band students these are moments given to make huge lasting memories.. and how wonderful to be together with people.. leaving politics outside and enjoying the incredible talent of these kids. These are kids coming together, working together and supporting each other... however small.. however large. Band is a true representation of what working together can accomplish... so glad to be a spectator this weekend!!!

No one is upset. People on here sometimes get passionate about predictions. Especially when it's "their" band that gets left out! ah!!! I'm sorry... i didn't realize I stumbled upon a college football forum... (jk)

Everyone putting Hendrickson pretty high... after seeing them this weekend, I am really on the fence - leaning to somewhere in the teens tbh. It reminded me of a less clean Cedar Ridge 2017. The Texas power might be enough to make them standout as they do play well, but I think as far as a complete package it is a little lacking. Especially in what is being presented in the visual program.

I don't think it's likely but I could definitely see Castle or LW grab 12th. Neither band are quite what they used to be but we haven't seen an outstanding amount from LW this year outside of an early season comp. Castle's show seems like it has the same issue of last year, where they maxed it out too early in the season, but they still have a solid shot granted how last year turned out for them.

I mean I hate to be the bringer of bad news but it was GE that brought Hendrickson down a few places at SA, not Vis/Mus scores. Their highest score was a 15th in MI, and their lowest a 30 in total MGE.

I need Southlake Carroll to come in a snag a finalist spot. My expectation is that there will be two Texas programs in finals. I was talking with people more familiar with SLC than I am today, and their thought is that SLC will likely be towards the lower end of the finals bubble, when taking into consideration their recent performances.

I remember really enjoying it at their most recent competition, but I also understood why it wasn’t placing as well. Wish I could find a video of them online. Im still holding out hope because many people counted Keller out of SA finals as well 🤷🏻♂️. Some even had them on the lower end of the bubble. On the other hand, some of the other bubble bands have been having a stellar season. Definitely fun not knowing who will make it.

Yeah, I understand. I've sat through 3 grand national semifinals before and for some reason the visual program to me just stood out as just a bit subpar compared what I usually see to make finals. Maybe it was more effect related... but my innate sense was telling me they will be on the outside looking in. However, Hendrickson only has be as good as to beat everyone but 11 bands, which ya never know.

I agree on Castle. The Castle band (not percussion sorry :/) is amazing. But could easily make finals with a show like... idk the Pegasus show from Pearland. But this show is just not cutting it. Like a watered-down Cadets 2015. With that said, they could have upped their performance so much that they could make it even with a subpar show.
