Expand I doubt this hurts their "chances" of making finals but it definitely could put them lower in the rankings going into finals and makes for a LONG day for their students. All in all I don't think they will have any problems making state! Dave609 1 Quote
Boa.enjoyer Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 Going to state 1 Cy-Fair 2 Cypress Woods 3 Bridgeland 4 Seven Lakes 5 Jordan The rest of the finalists 6 JET 7 Cinco Ranch 8 Jersey Village 9 Tompkins 10 Cy-falls This competition really could go a number of ways but I think cy fair should Have this one down as long as they continue cleaning and have a good run. Second Third and Fourth could be any combination of woods bridgeland and 7 lakes but these programs all feel like a lock for state. that fifth state spot could go a lot of different programs but Jordan feels like the most likely at this point. Katy high school could also make finals, area Judging is weird. ruben_f 1 Quote
ChristopherRoden Posted October 25, 2022 Posted October 25, 2022 I haven't seen videos other than Jordan so I really only have contests and history to judge comparatively. I do hope the judging here this year is more streamlined than the past few years! I think this may be bridgeland's night come Saturday, their show really plays into the UIL sheet I believe. Cy Fair is very exciting but last I checked, slightly dirtier. They will be more successful at BOA but I could see either of these two shows pushing for a State finals spot maybe... Cy Woods and 7L have very different shows but I believe they're the next tier. Not quite as "perfected" as Bridgeland and Cy Fair but they are still very high achieving shows and I think that will be rewarded Saturday. Jordan and JET will be competing for the last state spot in my opinion. The judging so far has said that JET is better musically and Jordan is better visually (going off the Katy show a couple weeks ago). Given the history of the programs and directors, I believe these will be neck in neck come Saturday and it will all depend on the judges. Very exciting! It would be very impressive for Jordan to make 6A state on only their 3rd year open and their first senior class. I do however see the possibility of an upset from maybe Katy, Jersey Village or Tompkins! mountainlympus and crunchycookie3 2 Quote

I am a huge fan of Cy-Falls resurgence the past 2 seasons but I think they took too big of a step up in demand and the students are having pacing issues. In the long run, they will be fine, but I think Katy is in a better position to take the last spot in finals. Quote

Expand I agree, Katy has had a good marching season competitively so I think we will see them Saturday night. Cinco Ranch seems like a wild card for me. I was impressed at the beginning of the season but I haven't seen them since. They have competed well at some smaller contests so will be interesting to watch them, Jersey Village and Tompkins Quote

They've added a ton to the show since BOA (heck they didn't even play the whole show there...and the ending is unique and dramatic), and they've added visuals to the completed show since finishing well at the Katy Marching Festival and Battle of the Berry. They're musically strong despite being largely Freshmen and Sophs. The draw was kind and they're reaching the peak of what they've got. I'm just hoping they'll put their best run out there and make a good impression. Quote
