The last time devils was out of top 2 during San Antonio was 2016, and was a really low scoring show for that point in general, with Bluecoats winning with an 87.063. I would love to see Bloo break some records Saturday!!
Your caption predictions are spot on at this point in the season, I think that SA will really highlight where GE is affected by the other captions. Being an indoor stadium, gives all the corps a chance to simulate Indy. However, never count out BD…they seem to always give more to the level when needed. I think they took Broken Arrow for granted. Love Bloo and PRs successes this year as I marched PR and my son is currently in Bloo. I first saw Bloos show in Canton and I knew then what the judges are saying now…a very complex show visually and musically..just need the guard to step up and stop the drops. Beloved PR always grabs my heart musically, and I’m just waiting for their visuals to clean up and knock that GE up a bit:) Thanks for being open to discussing our favorite activity of the summer!
You were pretty close! Bluecoats are starting to leave the others in the dust, a 93 is actually insane. Bloo guard in 4th is rough, but they will still have no problem getting the gold.
I agree with almost everything that you said. I don't think that you can ever count BD out, but Bloo has the it show this year and they are performing the heck out of it. Boston's guard and percussion are top notch, but they can't match Bluecoats in GE. Crown sounds amazing, but their show design isn't on the level of the top 3. Welcome back Phantom!
Troopers have 3 full rehearsal days before San Antonio, and aren't doing any of the pre-San Antonio Texas shows. I bet they change their show a lot and/or clean up. Whether it results in a score jump remains to be seen since they'll have to overcome their timeslot. I still think they get 8th by the end of the season. As for Saturday, I have no idea where they'll end up.
so far just seems like the content and achievement roof is lower for the bluecoats than the other 3 ahead in the colorguard caption, they’re definitely good I think the other 3 this year are extremely great just gotta see how things change
I think Boston excels at color guard not only because of their book but because of their drill placement. The guard is strategically placed on the field that enhances the writing from the choreographers. Not to mention THE TECHNIQUE 🔥🔥 I see BD getting 2nd in guard and Bluecoats getting 3rd. Crown getting 4th in guard.
As a bluecoats color guard fan, I think the guards performance at broken arrow was not so good compared to their past performances this season. In my opinion, if they have a better run at dci San Antonio, they have what it takes to place higher, perhaps 2nd or 3rd ( im not saying first because I have to admit that Boston crusaders guard is just THAT good) 😅
Dude give me a break with this Blue Devils brass in 5th silliness. They're the only hornline that ever beats Crown and have the best overall brass track record of any corps in rhe world even WITH Crown's recent track record. Phantom will not beat that hornline. Period.
@@totesgene I never said a word about Bluecoats. I realize they are on a different level this year. But you're saying Phantom could beat BD in brass? INSANE!
@@sdssteward Ok. They did. I never said they didn't have a great brassline nor did I ever say they weren't capable of winning brass. I said what I said because the OP said BD is the only corps to beat Crown in brass and that's not true.
I do believe that crowns weaknesses were amplified by a very questionable run at broken arrow, so I believe that they can and will be much stronger.
I remember the Alamo Dome being so cold that in the tunnel, that when I retuned, I was playing something insane like 25 cents flat.
This happened to us at state last year it was so cold in the tunnel we had to blow warm air through our instruments the whole time
As a Phan, I'm just happy that Phantom Regiment is back on top 5

Thanks for being open to discussing our favorite activity of the summer!
Thanks for doing all this work. It is good to finally see updates on uTube!!
1997 was the Magic of Orlando New Orleans show.
Thank you!
I really do enjoy how Boston found a way to incorporate their percussion section with their color guard during their True Colors ballad.
Thank you for your entertianing take on our beloved activity!
Great video!!!

love your channel, this is the content ive been searching for!!!

I concur.

I see BD getting 2nd in guard and Bluecoats getting 3rd. Crown getting 4th in guard.
I’m here for my baritone scout. I think the most recent score in Waco might change things and move them to 12th.

Will Yall cover BOA and over comps during the HS band season on here as well as yalls rankings?
That’s the plan!
@@GeneralEffectMediaoh my god, you’re actually gonna cover BOA 😮😮 is the plan to talk about the hornrank top 32/45 in certain boa events?
GEM has our own National Rankings as well as Regional Rankings. We will focus on those rankings as well as scores and placements.
@@GeneralEffectMedia yessssss okay sweet thanks man
Well this hasn't aged well. Especially in captions. You thought Devils would be 4th or 5th in brass. THEY WON brass! Lol!
Oh no, should we just give up now?
@GeneralEffectMedia of course not. This video was strictly about San Antonio and only San Antonio.
Yes Bluecoats guard is not selling the guard book as good as BD, Carolina Crown or Boston. Boston will take best guard again in INDY.

Um Bluecoats have been beating them all in brass this year.

@@sdssteward you said BD is the only hornline that beats Crown. I never said PR could beat BD in brass.
@totesgene well this certainly hasn't aged well. Devils just won brass. 🤷♂️
@@sdssteward Ok. They did. I never said they didn't have a great brassline nor did I ever say they weren't capable of winning brass. I said what I said because the OP said BD is the only corps to beat Crown in brass and that's not true.
