Depending on how well they perform I agree with you here Ian, although like hunter, it's hard to believe that only one tier I group will make finals. but you never know, anything can happen!
Middle Mixed Predictions:
GC: West Jones (They will also likely make finals. I'll be very surprised if they don't)
1RU: NE Jones
2RU: Biloxi or Rhapsody
3RU: Biloxi or Rhapsody
4RU: Purvis or PRC
WOMEN'S
GC: West Jones ladies
1RU: Homewood ladies
2RU: PRC ladies or Northwest Rankin ladies
Middle mixed this year is filled crazy talented groups! This was actually pretty difficult for me to predict so i'm destined to be wrong but it's the thought that counts.
Chelsea, AL might be getting overlooked! They TIED for Best Choreography with Albertville at the pre-season ACDA event in Alabama. Their show is amazing...and their energy...holy cow! Apparently they are going to HOA too! I wouldn't be surprised to see them in finals.
Prediction
GC: Homewood "The Network"
1st RU: Madison Central Revellie
2nd RU: Northwest Rankin Rhapsody
3rd RU: Oak Grove Center Stage
4th RU: West Jones Imagination
