I was worried there, and then it just kinda happened. I couldn't believe it, and it was really great to see! I too thought they would be knocked out!

The mc mentioned a "secret weapon" before the match.

If you look closely 148 is hanging one set of wheels off. need at least 1 widebot (or longbot) that can hang off enough to give you balance room.

We designed for that, our center of gravity is towards the back of our robot. We can hang our front wheels off ;)

From what I saw, it looked like 922 is a narrow robot with mecanums, which allowed 148 to push them up sideways.

EDIT: And they just pulled it off again to beat the 488/118 alliance 63-39!

After watching the second balance, their balancing mechanism is doing the load of the work. That's some great engineering, simply being wide isn't enough.

These matches are awesome. Robowranglers are winning because of triple Balance.
