Would they take both and announce 6th, or would they take the one with the lower GE score and put them in 6th? Expand Just to answer and point something out, but theres no GE, and a tie for anything above 5th with 2 schools will be broken and therefore create a full 7th place band which means zero extras from the “top 6” will be added to state, I dont know about 3 way ties going past 6th honestly so cant answer that, and Waxahachie isnt here, which would make most of this area cry if they were😭 JFNDOWBFAN 1 Quote

A lot of these schools could be even more amazing if given a chance in Finals. Feel like the top half (first 2 blocks) today is slightly stronger but still some really great bands in block 3 and 4. It’s heating up so hope all bands are hydrating. TrenBS 1 Quote
Howdy08 Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 I was surprised by how much I loved Sachse’s show. Quote

JFNDOWBFAN Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Thus far, I would anticipate Finals being top heavy from first 2 blocks but plenty of great bands this afternoon. Quote

Popular Post Broke College Band Kid Posted October 21, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 21, 2023 Here's my predictions just based on who I think will make finals (not doing rankings just because I haven't seen nearly everyone). This is just random order not where I think they'll place. Hebron Flower mound Marcus Wylie Wylie East McKinney Boyd Prosper Rock Hill Plano East Lewisville Byron Nelson Rockwall I literally didn't know who Byron Nelson was until today, but I thought their show was amazing, on par or better than Rock Hill who was before them (probably 2nd in their block below Wylie), and could genuinely see them being a dark horse to make state.

Had NF and one other band made area, would have qualified. Expand Not only were we one place off, we were one point off. The year before we had placed 5th but they only took 4 bands. Can’t catch a break out here 😅 Quote

They are performing as an exhibition band. They are a bit pitchy. Formations strong. Flying towards to South endzone.
