hey, you never know! those are my predictions. I've seen their shows a few times, and I'm sure they can place well at competitions.
Then you're undermining the traditional placers at this competition, ie Carroll, LeMars, Hinton, and Des Moines Lincoln. Putting SF ahead of two prep groups means you put them above my said groups. I am not denying them the 1A/2A champion spot, but i think the talent of this competition is too high to see them place higher than 6RU. Each year Mr. Fog brings in more and more quality competition, thus making it hard for a 1A/2A group to take the other 3A/4A and quality prep groups.
Of course they are your predictions and crazier things have happened, and I am in no way degrading your predictions. I am just putting my two cents worth in (:
A very good set of judges, Mr. Fog! I love me some Paul Gulsvig! I'm still trying to figure out a way for me to come to this competition! It was always a favorite of mine.
Woah. Crazy schedule.. So weird seeing 3A groups performing early morning.. Just wondering, Fog, why the 3A before prep groups? Is it because the prep groups are typically from schools further away than the other 3A groups? (minus Carroll)
Looks like one of the deepest Emmetsburg competitions in a while.. I counted 22 schools (not groups..schools) attending this in one way or another..

Boyden-Hull may be 2A this year. We are still taking groups in the Vocal Jazz category.
