Fred Windish Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Difficult to see one of he current Top 3 position corps not winning a medal. Thought there was a chance a couple weeks ago, but not now. So, I find new drama in the next tier. I'll go with this . . . . 4th Cavaliers 5th SC Vanguard 6th Cadets What about YOU ?

Hook'emCavies Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Scv in 4th, cavies in 5th, and cadets at 6th 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedJazz1900 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I think SCV just stands out compared to Cavaliers and Cadets. I say: 4th SCV 5th Cavaliers 6th Cadets 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'm still surprised to see Cavaliers above Cadets. I was there live last night and I just didn't see it. But hey, I'm not a judge and the Cavaliers are very good. They do have a more well thought out theme and clear GE. The Cadets have the firepower in music. It may come down to visual proficiency and guard tonight. As for SCV, neither of the 2 are in their league. Santa Clara's show is just miles better in design, content, and theme. My guess is the judges think this too but feel it's not being performed as well as it should. Tonight I see: 4. SCV 95.5 5. Cadets 94.95 6. Cavaliers 94.5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Windish Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 Watching last night on DCI-Live, I got the impression Cavaliers didn't "bring it all" like I saw from them in Allentown. I thinkCavaliers are capable of doing better tonight than last night. Last night lacked the same of the energy, sense of urgency I enjoyed in Allentown. Of course, one reading was "live," and the other "on screen." Love the Cadets in many ways, but I'm thinking they are already typecast as an outlier for medal this year. Too bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slingerland Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) I agree with earlier poster that Cavaliers energy level was ok last night, but not as intense as at their better regional shows (I was watching live, not on the stream). If they can kick it back up to 100% tonight, they could put some more distance between themselves and Cadets. Cadets can play loud, and they can drum, but I don't think they can do much to put any more gloss on the thing their design team gave them to polish this year. They've been losing in GE and guard to Cavaliers pretty consistently, and that's not likely to change. SCV is safe on Fourth Place Island (same with BK over on 7th).

I think they are going to be amazing tonight. I really want them to finish 5th 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baquan Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Current order will be the final order for 4/5/6, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
