This seemed to be a common problem Friday at Arizona. The field crew was repairing the field with short pieces of tape, which the Kit drivetrain likes to suck off the floor, into the belt. The main cause seems to be that the pulleys and belts are about half an inch off the floor so any loose corner will be caught and pulled up. A mentor on another team brought this to the attention of the head referee, and it appears that on Saturday they repaired the field with long pieces of tape, instead of trying to fix it with short pieces.
