Only 3 schools with all judges having them in finals. 5 schools with no judges having them in finals. 
everything was all over the place…

hoping for more agreement next week at Katy!
 

Holy smokes! This is just wild. Anyone seen the finals results?

Also, way anyone able to catch Wylie East? I was VERY surprised to see them place 7th. Saw their most recent performance and definitely thought top 3 or 4, but maybe it's more of a UIL show, or are they just not as strong as a group this time around as normal? They seem a little smaller than these past few years, but i couldn't hear a major difference.

It's like a classic UIL recap! 😭

In prelims, Friendswood was 15th in Visual Effect. In finals, they were 1st in that caption by over 2.5 points on the 100 scale! That is QUITE the disagreement! Both of them very experienced judges, too!

Sorry, that should read, "by 2.5 points," not over 2.5 points. But still!

wait u mean to tell me that the judges aren't as consistent as Richard Saucedo says they are when he defends using two panels to determine super regional finalists?!!!! b-b-but he said they're all the most experienced in the business and that they know what a 16.0 in September looks like!!! surely this must be a mistake!!!! these recaps are fake!!! /s

kinda a miracle i ended up mostly agreeing with the results overall. some bizarro caption rankings based on what i saw. F-wood in 15th for VGE is absurd. twilight zone level judging as i call it lol. prob wouldn't have had them 1st either, bc of dirt, but the content was prob 1st.

Wylie East def fell into that category of "was expecting them to be a little stronger" along w/ cywoods and 7L. the bands ahead of them mostly sounded and looked better + had stronger designs, tho the gap wasn't that big.
