I agree, the best seats in the house are lower balcony.
As a Viterbo Alum (Theater Arts, '78) the FAC is what drew me out from the east coast to attend college there. The Main Theater is a great performance space that I always enjoyed working in.
The main theatre is very nice - large stage, professional lights & sound, 1100 seats divided between a main floor and a lower & upper balcony.
I really love sitting in the lower balcony. It's a great venue no matter where you sit. Sound is great, people don't block your view. We sat in the last row of the 1st balcony last year and it was a GREAT spot.
For Real Blind Prediction this time: (just an opinion) (maybe a bit of bias haha)

All I know is that it is going to be CLOSE. Just like last year. Any of the top 4 could go any way. All of the groups will have AMAZING shows. It will just come down to the judges' preference. Can't wait for this competition! Going to be so fun to start off the year.
Hastings Upstage Revolution was a late addition to this comp, so it didn't make the first schedule, but here is the updated one from the Viterbo website. The middle school groups have been given 20 minute slots and Upstage was put at the beginning of the prep groups.
