I don't think Mandarins are in the same discussion anymore with Madison. San Antonio is going to be a high stakes show.

I agree 100%. In fact i think the Colts can catch Madison. And if that happens, steer clear of that Madison thread lol. Heck i would avoid it now lol.

Ahh - but have you figured in "West-Coast Score Inflation"?

For some of us (esp. those of us who marched in a Corps that didn't win much) the battle for 10th to ~17th place is fun to watch.

And we are lucky this year to have quite a few Corps in the mix.

Fixed that for you. :whistle:

SoA has only competed once, & it was GE judge panel only.  We'll see once the feet start getting involved.  Madison is supposedly fairly on track in the execution captions, and good execution is the foundation for good GE.   And as I have said in other places - don't forget "West-Coast Score Inflation"

Sorry, but please stop being delusional. There is no West Coast inflation.

If you REALLY believe in West Coast inflation, here's a fun observation: Pasadena and Lisle scores from July 1 last year:

BD   74.500
SCV   73.850
BK   69.700
Phantom   68.300
Mandarins   66.200
Academy   64.300
PC   62.600

Bluecoats   75.400
Cavaliers   73.600
Boston   70.700
Blue Stars   68.700
Madison   66.300
Troopers   63.400
Pioneer 49.600

Compare these comparative placements to eventual final placements at DCI and it's not very far off the mark.
