That’s very fair, I haven’t seen Lake Ridge this season so I put them there based off last year but I did see Forney at HEB this year and if they are just getting better than I believe they’ll make finals.

After Bedford and seeing a few of these bands perform, I'll have a better idea of where these bands stand. Right now these are my top 12 as of right now. 1. Wakeland 2. Keller 3. Timber Creek 4. LD Bell 5. Waxahachie 6. Prosper 7. Southlake Carroll 8. Duncanville 9. Hendrickson 10. Keller Central 11. Lake Ridge 12. Lake Highlands / Boyd / Rock Hill / Sachse / Forney Couldn't fully decide on the final spot and these will most likely move around after Bedford.

Taking a shot at predictions. 1 Flowermound (GE and Visual) 2 Hebron (Music) 3 Marcus 4 Wakeland 5 Coppell 6 Waxahachie 7 Timber Creek 8 LD Bell 9 Jenks 10 Southlake Carroll 11 Forney 12 Keller Central

Can’t wait to see all these talented bands perform on Saturday! These are my personal predictions for this competition, would love to hear what y’all think Marcus Wakeland Keller Timber Creek Forney Keller Central Aledo Haltom James Martin Azle Fossil Ridge Boswell

I agree with most of what you said except for the Timber Creek part. I believe their show is extremely UIL as shown by BOA DFW and then later at Area B. Keller also placed higher than them in BOA but was beaten out by them in Area.

San Antonio was insane!!! After watching these amazing bands and with State prelims being tomorrow I’m curious to see what y’all think the state finals could be.

On the state schedule it says they go after CTJ, I’m not too educated on this but do you think going after such a talented band will hinder their chances for finals? I also believe keller will clean up rather well this week and will be able to push into finals, hopefully TC too.

Me and a friends personal predictions for this saturday, area has a reputation of being unpredictable but we’ll give it a shot. Also some biases ofc. Area B 1 - Coppell - Always a powerhouse and a clear winner for this area, great this season and coming off of an incredible season last year. 2 - Keller - Musically pretty strong, visually not as much as coppell but keller always knows how to clean up around this time, easy second 3 - Waxa - Haven’t seen much of them, they followed decently well behind keller at DMI in scores, I can see them taking a easy 3rd place here 4 - Timber Creek - Show design isn’t too difficult but they are clean and sound very solid, I can see them taking 4th behind waxa. 5 - LD Bell - Visually great design, then can also clean up well, musically they just aren’t as clean as TC but I can definitely see them taking back a state spot. 6/7 - DVille - Very solid show this year, sounds pretty great, haven’t been able to see how they are visually but I believe they can take back a state spot. 6/7 - SLC - They had rough beginnings early season but I believe they will clean up well in time for their GN performances, just depends on if they can clean up in time for area. 8/9 - KCent - Strong sounding, very much improved and I believe they will get some of the recognition they deserve 8/9 - Lake Ridge - haven’t seen them yet, but if what people say are true then they can definitely give some names a run for their money. 10/11/12 - Haltom, Lake Highlands, Highland Park
