I am going to predict the top 12 in order of my preference. This will certainly change but I want to see how close I can get with top 12.Girls
1 - Jen Hirsh
2 - Shannon Magrane
3 - Hallie Day
4 - Skylar Laine
5 - Chelsea Sorrell
6 - Erika Van Pelt
Boys
1 - Colton Dixon
2 - Phil Phillips
3 - Adam Brock
4 - Joshua Ledet
5 - Jeremy Rosado
6 - Creighton Fraker
If they take 13 again this year to the finals, I think it will be between Eben Franckewitz and Reed Grimm.
It's so hard to pick a winner right now but I'll say it could be one of the following 5.
Colton Dixon (if I had to pick now, would be my pick)
Phil Phillips (I expect will go very far)
Jen Hirsch (Should be final 5)
Joshua Ledet ( I see a ton of talent)
Skylar Laine ( I think could be the dark horse winner. They are due for a female winner and while I think Jen Hirsh has more talent, I have a feeling this girl could win.)
We'll have a better idea after semi finals but it's fun to try and predict now.
