Who will this years Dark Horse(s) be?

Who do you think will surprise some people unexpectedly this year, and why?

I'm saying Spirit. They're due, and it sounds like they've found their way back to an actual identity after a decade in the wilderness.

Do not count out Troopers this season. Strong music book and a much improved visual program.

Gotta go for SCV to bring the surprise factor this year. I have a distinct vibe that they will end up laying it down after they've been on the road a bit. SCV work ethic to iron out that young hornline with Rennick drumline, I think it could be really good. From what I hear (admittedly only bits and pieces of the program at this point), this show has that intense mood that fits SCV so well, imo. This could turn out to be a great vehicle once its had some time in the shed.

You have no clue! They were ON FIRE last night!

I voted for them and Madison.

8 votes for Madison? They're not a dark horse, they've been hyped all year long (and living up to it) so they aren't really coming out of no where.

Actually I do have a clue - hence my mentioning them.

After being at last nights show at the University Of Tennessee at Martin, I can tell you right now Spirit is going to challenging for those 10th - 12th spots.

[crackle]

ok, im really excited for Madison's show this year! i think a lot of corps are going to have to go through Madison (possibly even vanguard and the blue stars) if they want to get into the top 8.

BOSTON returns to the Top 6.
