Jbl3770 Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 O.K. - all 3 BOA regionals are completed - so it is time to start looking forward to the BOA super-regional and then the 6A UIL State results. Based on the BOA results - here are the top 5 as I see it for San Antonio - in no particular order Hebron CT Johnson Marcus Woodlands LD Bell thoughts???? Quote
Pear Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 What about the schools from the Austin area? I think Round Rock, Leander and Bowie all have made a case for a top 5 spot with Bowie scoring an 84.3 (I think), Leander an 83.5 (If I remember correctly) and winning the Texas Marching Classic and Round Rock with an 82 ish and winning the Westlake Marching Festival. These scores also were a week before Denton and two weeks before Conroe. principalagent and Nin10doGuy77 2 Quote
Statebound Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Based on what I've seen so far, pretty much in this order... Hebron CTJ Marcus TW Bowie (Music is harder than FloMo) Flower Mound LDB Round Rock I would put Coppell in this mix but I don't believe they are going to BOASA and that's unfortunate. Quote
knoxisawesome348 Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 My thoughts as of right now (in alphabetical order): * = top 2 in each group Top group (1-6): Bowie CTJ * Hebron * Leander Marcus TWHS Next Group: Cedar Park (I could see them possibly missing finals, but it's not likely) Flower Mound * LD Bell (Wild card) Ronald Reagan (Wild card) * Round Rock Vandegrift Bubble (Pick 2) - obviously I missed some because this list is long Aledo Anderson Berkner Hendrickson Keller Keller Central Plano East Richland Spring * Vista Ridge * Westlake Edit: I should look at the list of who's signed up before posting. Swapped out College Park and Wakeland for Spring and Vista Ridge principalagent 1 Quote
k-jack Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 I think the top three could be a LISD sweep, similar to last years UIL. 1. Leander 2. Vandegrift 3. Cedar Park 4. Bowie 5. Brazoswood- (wild card) Quote

I saw Round Rock and Leander at BOA Austin and their shows were very good and that was early in the season - I think that the SA show will be huge this year with so many strong shows. alyglad87 1 Quote
Popular Post Abbie123 Posted October 13, 2014 Popular Post Posted October 13, 2014 Hmm. I really do wonder, every year we try to predict what is going to happen, and something surprising always happens. Its like the Cowboys in the NFL this year. #Superbowl #SuperRegional Nin10doGuy77, Xenon, scoobydoo and 3 others 6 Quote
beowulf Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 My top 5, in alphabetical order: Bowie, Hebron, Johnson, Marcus, Woodlands Probable finalists: Reagan, Cedar Park, Flower Mound, Leander, Bell, Woodlands College Park, Round Rock, Vandegrift That's 14. I don't know if all 14 will make finals, but it's my best guess for now. Quote
beowulf Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 I just counted, and my list was just 13. That works out, because there are about a dozen other bands I would have liked to have included on that list! As everyone else is saying, I can't wait for BOA SA. Pretty much all the usual suspects will be there but Coppell and Cedar Ridge. Great contest! Quote
principalagent Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 TW College Park also isn't attending, but I think Spring fits nicely in their place. Quote
HighSchoolBandNerd212 Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Wakeland isn't attending either. Quote

moler512 Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 this is ganna be an insane year at BOASA!! Why isnt wakeland attending? i think they would have done very well here. Quote
Pear Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Predictions!!: 1) CTJ 2) Hebron 3) TWHS 4) Bowie 5) Leander 6) Marcus 7) Round Rock 8) Flower Mound 9) LD Bell 10) Reagan 11) Vandegrift 12) Cedar Park 13) Spring 14) Hendrickson On a side note: I believe that UIL will be completely different. There, schools like Marcus and Bell would be rated higher while schools like Round Rock much lower. trumpetdrumajorpower13 1 Quote
~ME~ Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Boy, I can't wait to come back to this post and see how absolutely wrong I was with these predictions. I'm not even going to TRY to put them in a specific placement order, that would just be a little too crazy right now. Instead I'll put them in blocks, with the bands within each block in no particular placement order. Here we go:TOP 5: (Obviously, I consider these bands finals locks)-Bowie-CTJ-Hebron-Marcus-The Woodlands6-10: (I think these guys are finals locks as well)-Flower Mound-Leander-LD Bell-Reagan-Round RockTOP CONTENDERS FOR 11-14: (These are the bands I think are on the bubble and have a legitimate shot at making it into finals)-Aledo-Berkner-Cedar Park-Churchill-Plano East-Spring-Vandergrift-Vista Ridge-WestlakeAnd I'll go on and take a crack at the captions:-Hebron takes Music-Either Bowie, Woodlands, Marcus, or Bell take Visual.-Either Hebron, CTJ, or Bowie takes GE. Maybe a small chance Leander snatches it away from them.And there ya go. Excited for another intense competition at the Alamodome. Gonna be a good one. DCIfan101 1 Quote
Jackson1 Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 AWESOME!!! The Beauty about Texas marching bands right now is it is no longer a race for who will come in second. It would be awesom if Marcus takes their 5th state championship. They are awesome and have a great program. How cool would that be? A decade of dominance? How great is it that any of the top BOA champs could have the best run of their lives and take this thing? CJT, Woodlands, Leander, Bowie, Hebron, Marcus? That is just 6 bands. Any one of them can take both state and/or BOA. Add the next two in all of those competitions and things get crazy. I agree, both state and Boa are up for grabs. What a great time in Texas marching bands. Good luck to all of them!!!! At this point it doesn't matter who wins. They are all great!!! They all win........ Wow, wow, wow...... Pitster12 1 Quote

HighSchoolBandNerd212 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Cedar Ridge isn't going either... This is all listed on the MFA website. Quote

I don't know why a select few people decide to put Cedar Ridge on their predictions! It irritates me. Sorry I had to vent lol I am sure that they assumed that Cedar Ridge would compete in Texas - Many are basing their predictions on the season as it unfolds. it is a compliment to Cedar ridge and not intended to be a slight. satxbandfan 1 Quote
HighSchoolBandNerd212 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Without seeing a lot of these groups at all, here are my biased predictions as of now: (Listed by group in alphabetical order. ) 1, 2, or 3: Hebron Probable Finalists: Cedar Park Claudia Taylor Johnson Flower Mound James Bowie L. D. Bell Leander Marcus Ronald Reagan Round Rock The Woodlands Vandegrift Bubble (Last couple spots, but not necessarily 13 and 14): Aledo Anderson Hendrickson L. V. Berkner Plano East Senior Richland Spring Vista Ridge Westlake After what I witnessed at last year's BOASA, I cannot claim any band as a 100% lock for anything. Quote
