FloMo and CTJ are not the new Marcus/Bell because in those days it was literally impossible for anyone BUT them to win, They were in the stratosphere and the rest of us were on the ground. That was dominance. Nothing against FM and CTJ- they are truly elite, but it isn't difficult to imagine Reagan, or Hebron, or The Woodlands or Leander, etc. winning.

This exactly!  Every year it is really anyone's guess who will come out on top.  There are so many amazing bands in this state.  Just making finals is an accomplishment.  Congrats to all the bands.  Best of luck to those marching at State this week

I agree it sure seems like that coming into San Antonio. Heck Reagan almost won this thing. But looking at the results the past couple of years it sure seems like an either them or them situation.

Well looking at recaps for the two probably surprise bands out of finals for me (Bowie and Cedar Park) it looks like for Bowie they simply didn't quite get there across the board. They were close but just needed a little extra. Cedar Park seems to tell a different story as the performance captions are strong and would have them in finals but GE was just low. Like really low. Like 21st overall low while Music and Visual were 11th and 12th respectively.

BOA owes Cedar Park and Bowie an apology. Nothing against LD Bell and Westlake, but they were in finals because of lucking into panel 1. Finals scores back that up. Either BOA needs to get their judging panels to be more consistent (not sure how you do that since they’re people and prone to subjective differences) or you cap the contest at 60 bands and go back to one panel over two days. What’s been communicated today is that luck is every bit as important as show design and skill. Cedar Park not getting to perform at Waco might have factored but Bowie’s trajectory all season has been higher than Bell, Westlake, even Cedar Ridge and Hendrickson. Both CP’s and Bowie’s prelims runs were plenty good enough. Nobody probably cares tho. I’m sure Dan won’t spend 5 seconds talking about it on the pod.
