Lincoln-Way now follows in O'Fallon's footsteps, where they only go to ISU if there's no BOA event that weekend

Lincoln-Way is attending the Indianapolis Super Regional this year, which unfortunately conflicts with ISU.

Does anyone know why Lincoln way doesn’t go to isu??

I've seen a lot of people talk about inconsistent judging during Dunlap when comparing IVC and Galesburg, but to me, looking at the individual captions, the scores seemed far too close to make the flip-flops inconsistent. I'm probably missing something here though, so please don't hesitate to correct me if I'm wrong.

The judging panel was inconsistent at dunlap, but the judging panel tonight looks better. The scores definitely do matter more, and I'm excited to see how they do against their competitors tonight It's gonna be close. Galesburg, in my opinion, is still growing throughout the season!

That seems right- I haven’t been able to find any other KY band that comes into IL.

I don't think getting third in their class will mean very much- it will matter more if their scores are close.

They certainly aren’t the Andy Empey Galesburg that once looked like it could compete with Morton but they’re still a force to be reckoned with. If you interrogate the recap from Dunlap, the judges in every caption disagreed between Galesburg vs. IVC which, to me, is a prime example of inconsistent judging. Today will be their test, I think. And it’s in the new house of the person who made them a ‘household’ name again. They’ve got serious competition at Morton. If they compete and hang in the top three of their class, I am not as worried about them.

I'm not sure where Galesburg is actually at right now. Last week made it seem like they're off their game. Of course it could have just been a weird score at Dunlap.

Would not be surprised if Galesburg got very competitive and got 2nd at Morton. But also, I don't know how good Davenport Central are this year, I know they are usually very decent.

Maybe McCracken County? St. Louis Super Regional participants.

I heard today that there are rumors of a "Kentucky BOA Band" going to SIU's competition- has anyone else heard/can verify this? Any ideas who?

Don't have time to predict class winners, but will predict overall winners for each show: Feel free to shred my predictions BOA Memphis: Hernando, MS sneaks the win over Germantown, MS Danville: Mahomet - 2nd: Champaign Central Downers Grove: Munster, IN takes the trophy, with Plainfield North in 2nd (a toss-up in my head) Effingham: Mascoutah wins it all, with 3A band Newton taking 2nd place Morton: Normal - Davenport Central 2nd (would not surprise me if its close) Providence Catholic: Lincoln Way- VJA in 2nd

Yeah the fact that Casey-Westfield got a 180 (second highest of the day) in Visual GE but an 80 (lowest of the day) in Visual Ensemble. Very odd. There’s also a lot of fluctuation from band to band on the score.

Yeah, I'd agree that those are quite high. Every band except for Anna-Jonesboro had Visual GE scores that are considerably higher than their Visual Ensemble scores, whereas last year it was the opposite. Last year the range in Visual GE was a 70-165, this year it's 140-184. Probably should be somewhere in the middle, from a 100ish-155ish.
