Re: YOU Predict the Average Match Score of 2014's Week 1 Regionals/Districts

My predictions for week 1:

Qualification Match Winning Scores Average: 45 (in no small part due to fouls)
Qualification Match Losing Scores Average: 25

Elimination Match Winning Scores Average: 90 (about half auto, half tele)
Elimination Match Losing Scores Average: 60

For the most part I think defense will *really* slow alliances down... If you can make life really difficult for the robot that has the ball, the whole alliance's progress is essentially stopped.

That said, I think there will be some alliances in Week 1 that are quite good (3 "mobilities" in auto, 2 or 3 high balls in auto, and either 4+ cycles of 20 points or 3+ cycles of 30 points)... I expect that 150 will be broken week 1.

*I'm* really curious to see how my predictions turn out!
