It's cramped, but I remember warming up indoors in 2015.

this year the warm ups are already planned to be indoors as I understand it

They can move the warm ups to indoor if necessary! I've been through that experience haha

 

DCI offered an indoor warm up space at the dome. It was very cramped with just an 80-member hornline, and I'd hate to see what it would be like for some of these 150+ member hornlines.

I'm sure there is a contingency plan, but if the weather is clear I can't imagine they would not have warmup outside.

Who has only 150 horns? /s

Some probably wildly inaccurate predictions :)

 

1. CTJ

2. Hebron

3. Reagan

4. Vandegrift

5. FloMo

6. The Woodlands

7. Keller

8. Leander

9. Vista Ridge

10. Cedar Park

11. James Bowie

12. Hendrickson

13. Marcus

14. Cedar Ridge

 

Really grasping at straws with those last few spots

 

Also, it will be interesting to see how the odd/even blocks play out.

Honestly tho imagine . More than half of these being an odd . Like that would change up so much .

the cancellation of the WACO BOA adds some additional intrigue to the BOA SA contest. We have not seen Marcus in a BOA scored event this year (with new leadership) and will not see them until they hit prelims in San Antonio

 

the weather this season has added a new dynamics to the San Antonio show (with cancellation of finals in DFW) and will make it event more difficult to predict - add the changes to the prelim judging by block this year and the fact that due to the size of the event, we routinely see a change from the prelims to finals in this event

 

should be a great year in the dome

They have compiled a list of all the bands that have made SA super finals in the last three years and are spreading attending bands from that list equally throughout the blocks so that something like that won't happen.

Ah okay that makes sense

I think seven lakes has an outside chance to make the bottom of finals. In the past they tend to finish way stronger then they start and are often late bloomers.

I'm personally rooting for them to come in 13th or 14th. I want some new faces and their show is FANTASTIC.

It would be a huge step for them their first two regional finals appearances were this year and a san antonio finals appearance would be a pleasant suprise.

Isn’t it 5 from the odd blocks combined, 5 from the even blocks combined, and then the next best 4?

Yes.

Based on Conroe I'd definitely say Cy Fair, Oak Ridge, and Seven Lakes have a shot at finals. I don't think Churchill can hang on unless they improve a lot more than UIL restrictions typically allow

 

If you had told me this 2 years or even a year ago, I wouldn't have believed it. Now, while I still find this statement hard to believe - I still think this Cy Fair, Oak Ridge, and Seven Lakes have what it takes to make finals or at least move inside the top 20.

How do prelims class placements and captions awards work with 2 judging panels?

 

They work exactly the same as before.  Combine everything and you'll get class placements and caption awards.
