My though is that you haven't watched robots trying to manipulate large balls....it's hilarious to watch, and agonizing if you're on the team that's trying to do it. It's not as easy as you might think. I expect that if an alliance can get the ball from one end of the field to the other, using 3 robots, it will take roughly a minute to do so. If they have their acts together.
