The score sheets used by 5 & 7 judge panels are available to the public online.

There were only 11 judges listed

Can you give an example? (Feel free to use 4A state, lol...)

How do the points shown in aggregate predictions work? 100+ predictions were submitted and 1st place has 700-800 points.

I couldn't find Calallen video anywhere. Randall and Canyon are saved to a playlist to watch tonight. Those 3 have definitely been strong bands to watch for.

Oh nice! When was that? Any of Farmersville's current marchers? UIL... They really need to rotate the schedule to take turns in which areas play 1st. Area C two years ago and this year again doesn't seem right. NL playing 1st and at 9 a.m. is definitely a disadvantage.

NL seemed smaller in the number of marchers this year?

Our family thought Farmersville would have beat North Lamar in Finals, BUT, we are also not trained judges. However, in Finals round their was only a difference of 2 points between them in 4th & 5th place. That amount is something that could potentially flip-flop from one round to the next. North Lamar does have a possible advantage with having years of experience at State. The Alamodome is like a strange cave. Adrenaline levels are going to be high & experience helps.

I had not even seen the predictions section. I have a few videos still to watch today and then I'll enter mine so I can see the others.

So Farmersville is going to leap frog past Sulphur Springs, Bridge City, & North Lamar that are also from Area C (and all 3 of those beat them in both the prelim and finals round)? I haven't seen Aubrey to have an opinion on them. No Davenport either? I think Farmersville does have a chance of getting into finals, but am definitely wondering about those ranks...

Newcomers?

I think they will likely make top 10 still, just not sure where exactly.

I fell for the same thing.

Anyone have Calallan video?

With allowing some margin of error for not being able to hear some parts very well (due to the filming in apparent hurricane force winds, lol)... I would now more confidently say I expect them to be in finals. Good luck!
