In a new corporate partnership, they will be known as the iCoats.

They did, once. Thankfully, never again.

But the quotes didn’t even say that. They all seemed to be right after performance (before scores) saying who they thought pulled it off. After, I saw nothing but congrats for BAC. What did you see?

Yeah, let’s not announce scores and have a blind draw for performance order. 🤮

Or another of the biggest ... the random draw year of 1988?

Why is it a “huge advantage?” They can still place above or below the corps before them. It would be a huge DISADVANTAGE if the best they could do was a tie at the top of the caption.

And? BD had two GE judges put them on top the night before. I thought the math had this panel overwhelmingly in favor of the boys in Canton?

You for got to say “other then the Blue Devils”

You mean like in 2008 where percussion scores gave PR the title? what a load of hogwash. It looks like he calls it like he sees it.

I TOTALLY agree that is an unpopular opinion. 🙂

For everyone who says a tie is nearly impossible any more, look at what happens if Gray had scored GE1 the same as Wemhoff tonight. Not THAT would have been interesting.

This is where it gets scary for the Bluecoats. If GE scores tighten at all, they could slip to second, even if everything else stays where it is. The spread is just that close. If the Blue Devils win over just one GE judge (perhaps with a visual emphasis), it could be enough. i honestly think the winner of semis wins it all. Going on last at finals is a big advantage and allows you to max out in your best captions. Only .1 apart tonight, this could still go either way. What an exciting finish!!!

I think BC amd BD split GE at finals (visual vs music). It is going to come down to the other captions (visual and music) to decide the winner. Since captions are averaged, the caption winners, still may not tell us who wins until they announce #2. My money is on BD, but it looks like it could go either way.

Note that SCV has the same number of shows as BD. BC has four shows more. I didn’t look at any others.

No problem...as soon as they create as many early season shows in the West as they have elsewhere. Keep in mind during the first two weeks of the season, the West has shows only on the weekend available to them.
