    2019 Predictions!

    It's so difficult to predict what's going to happen prior to the season actually starting, but just for the fun of it I'll give it a shot. I think one thing is certain, there will be a lot of corps at the top beating up on each other this year. I don't think we'll have a runaway champ like we have the past few seasons. I expect BD and SCV to go back in forth on the left coast, and Boston to jump out to an early lead in the East. I think the Bluecoats are going to have a solid season and climb a bit before ultimately giving way to SCV. And Crown, Cavaliers and Boston will trade blows at the end of the season.  Crown's design issues the past two seasons will come back to haunt them again, but the young percussion will line will continue to build on their recent success. The big surprise will come at the bottom, with Spirit and Music City making their way into the top 12. 

    1. SCV - Good reports coming from early camps, they have the talent and the design team to pull off back to back championships. 

    2. Bluecoats - Last year's group learned quite a bit (as did the design team), should be an up year for Bloooo

    3. BD - All three corps at the top will remain within a point of each other going into Nationals, and stay that way all through the week. BD wins brass and CG, but SCV and Blooo beat them in GE. 

    4. Boston - Boston becomes the beast of the East, putting distance between themselves 

    5. Cavaliers - The green machine stays solid in the early season with some key victories, but ultimately can't keep up

    6. Carolina Crown -  A young brass and percussion section, along with continued design issues will push this group further away from a medal this season. Based on the competition, sixth won't be as bad as it sounds. 

    7. Phantom Regiment - The black and white team is headed back in the right direction with a solid show.

    8. Cadets - an organization is more stable and the design team has a full year to gel. Despite an eighth-place finish, this will be a successful year for the corps as they continue to rebuild. 

    9. Blue Knights - I want to forget what I saw in 2018 and hope that BK can get back to something a bit more crowd friendly, like their 2017 show.

    10. Blue Stars - Just because

    11. Spirit of Atlanta - Spirit is heading in the right direction. 

    12. Music City - The big surprise of the year. This might be a year or two early, but I see good things coming from this group. 

    i don't see the cavies placing above crown or cadets. i think the cadets will be a huge shock this year and come back strong. crown is young but they have harloff to support them. top 6 will be a shootout for sure this season.

    last year my family and i went to chester and we thought we would find something to eat outside of the stadium nearby but we were sadly mistaken... we ended up eating 15 dollar hot dogs in the stands lol. the area is a little sketchy to say the least but it was an awesome show. hopefully tomorrow night will clear up for us.

    :biggrin:

    1. Crown

    2. Blue Devils

    3. Cavies/SCV

    4. SCV/Cavies

    5. Bluecoats

    6. Boston

    7. Phantom

    8. Cadets

     

    for starters this is my first ever post on here and i am quite new to DCI i started following closely in 2015. 

    as far as my predictions go I am very excited for Crown and Boston this year. Boston looks like they have their eyes set for top 3 and i have no doubt that they will get it but not this year. I think crown is hungry for gold and is ready to take it with a vengeance. their battery is developing very very nicely and their brass shocks me every time i see them. i think that this is the year that crown will get a championship. 

    I think the cavaliers are going to really surprise people this year but i am undecided on if they will medal or not.

    .......blue devils.......

    bluecoats can always just turn their volume up and get top 5 because why not.

    SCV Won't release much so idk. going off of last year they can definitely medal

    Cadets: i am really rooting on them this year. i want them to do great and i wish them the very best. i think this year will be one to develop. 

     

    my personal favorites are Crown, SCV and Boston.
