So no, it's not possible to physically blockade those paths.

But you could move from side to side. The problem is that when moving from side to side, you don't have much power going to that side. I think that robots would just plow through. Last year our robot was a 4 CIM 6 wheel plaction wheel drivetrain, and I don't remember any team being able to out muscle us one on one. However, the moment somebody rammed us from the side, we got moved significantly. And this is a 120.0 lb robot that had to drill speed holes just to be legal. And in offseason events, I'm fairly sure we were a little heavier than that (shhhhhhhh). And it still happened. I don't see this being a problem
