Chassis issue

Coming up with some dimensions after the kickoff today with our team we came to the realization that the ball could very well be larger than standard dimensions that we build our robot to, that being 23" x 32" or 34"x 22". does this mean that instead of seeing longer chassis that we will see more wide based ones to accommodate such a large game piece? If this is true, then i would be pressed to make a wider robot to be able to intake the ball, but then of course this means your width is shortened, so you have less room for your mechanisms to fold in to.

I guess what it comes down to is what are your ideas regarding chassis orientation and size?
