jwillis35 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Pre DCI I think perhaps the 70 Troopers went undefeated. But from DCI period (1972) onward it's mostly been Blue Devils. BD 1982, 1994, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014 - 6 total The Cadets 2000 (never lost a show, but Cavaliers did tie them in the end for the title) The Cavaliers 2002 That's it to my knowledge. The Cadets 1983 had a shot, but lost in semi-finals before winning Finals. BD 1986 almost did it, but lost their first show BD 1988 almost did it, but after going undefeated all season then lost to Madison at semifinals, and to Madison and SCV at Finals.

chris ncsu Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 75 Madison Scouts ? ( actually, just checked.. 75 Madison Scouts lost in a Prelims show to SCV... only blemish that season ) Some argue that prelim losses are not official losses? I've heard that argument maybe about Cadets 1983--did they lose once in prelims? Sorry too lazy to check at the moment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Some argue that prelim losses are not official losses? I've heard that argument maybe about Cadets 1983--did they lose once in prelims? Sorry too lazy to check at the moment... I have never been able to figure that argument out. That's like saying a college football team's one regular-season loss is not an "official" loss... only their loss in a bowl game is official. LOL A loss is a loss. Heck... by the "not official loss" argument, every corps should be in Finals... since their Prelims loss didn't count.

StarVoyager Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Several "almosts" come to mind, but not many that were able to complete it. Of those "almosts" that haven't been mentioned yet: 1995 Blue Devils (lost in the final week) 1992 Star of Indiana (lost in the final week) 1987 Santa Clara Vanguard (lost in the final week) 1989 Santa Clara Vanguard (lost.....one show that year I think in the first week?) 1989 Phantom Regiment (didn't lose until the final week I think?) I'm sure there are many others but just can't think of them right now hehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flammaster Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 75 SCV lost their first and last shows. Some little former B corps whooped em in San Bruno and then some guys from the Midwest at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) The following Corps had Undefeated Seasons ( Junior Corps listed only here ) : St. Vincent's Cadets ( NJ )......... 1951, 1952. Chicago Cavaliers ( IL)..................1961 ( and Cavaliers.... 2002 ) Blue Devils ( Calif. )......................1982... 1994.... 2009....2010....2012..... 2014. So many Corps ( close to a dozen or more) from the 50's to today, had only 1, 2 losses in a season ( Boston Crusaders were 27-2 from 1967- 1968, for just an example). At least 5 other Corps had just 1 loss seasons too. Thats why the Undefeated Seasons are rare, and why they are so special, imo.

Liahona Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 The Cadets 1983 had a shot, but lost in semi-finals before winning Finals. What corps do you know won semi-finals...only to loose the championship the next night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappybara Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 What corps do you know won semi-finals...only to loose the championship the next night? BD 08? ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarVoyager Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Yeah Cappy, I think that is the ONLY time that has happened from semis to finals. I could be wrong, but I don't think that has happened but just that one time in 2008. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
