All three were parts of juggernaut #1 alliances at their second events, with 118 and 148 securing gold behind a path of 200+ scores, and 624's alliance being DQ'd after their Orlando QF victory. There's little doubt that these three are the most proven teams heading into the event, and there's a good chance for another high powered elimination match-up.
Standing between the that trio and the Lone Star finals is a slew of other Texan competitors, headlined by defending world champions 1477. Texas Torque battled some issues with defense and high goal accuracy in Dallas, but with their lightning quick robot and dual-intakes, they have a boatload of potential. 1801, 3847, and 1429 could also make things interesting, especially if one of them seeds #1 or #2.

Interesting picks, i would call it the Texas Quadrangle. If you are not on an alliance with one corner of the Quadrangle, winning a regional is difficult.
118, 148 , 624, 1477 - those teams have the highest
BBQ since 2008
I'm surprised 2848 and 231 are not mentioned, here are my
