ThePlanets Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I have been reading everyone's banter back and forth about how the top 6 really ranks ordinally and the truth is we really won't know until San Antonio and we won't have more pieces to the puzzle until July 5. But in the meantime as I logically worked through the problems I found that each of these corps could realistically be in 3rd place at the end of the season. Sure some are more of a stretch than other but here it is: SCV- the coast to coast scoring has been accurate and Bluecoats are ahead. BD (or Boston or Crown) gains some momentum down the stretch and passes them too. BD- Scores have been relatively accurate and SCV/Bluecoats are ahead Bluecoats- their scores have been inflated and when they meet the west coast their true placement is revealed. Crown- They could be between SCV/BD with Bluecoats ahead, they could pass the Bluecoats. Boston- Scores have been accurate and they are now ahead of Crown and competing with SCV/BD. They end up beating one of the two. Cavaliers- they may have fallen back some behind BD/SCV but the east coast scores have been inflated and they beat all 3 corps that have been competing in the East. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forevergreen Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 One cannot say Boston is ahead of Crown until they go head to head again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said some scenarios may be a little bit more of a stretch than others. But for people that believe in raw scores .. Boston is ahead of them right this second (obviously nothing works like head to head and Crown beat Boston at the premier...always an uphill battle to pass a corps but it happens with at least one corps every season). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they met SCV in the Midwest and the article read "Santa Clara Vanguard Cross a Jagged Line" Then they ended up in 5th place. 5th place. So while I would love to think the Bluecoats have a comfortable lead I am pretty skeptical. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East coast always had 5 panel judges that inflated scores. Now they are all full panel. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
