Must not know much of the Palmetto state's teams and it's teams recent success and or otherwise.

343 has always been a team to watch. From my view it seems that this year may be one of their strongest robots in recent history.

1319 always comes very close to having a blue banner in their pocket. Their performance last season was very good and I wouldn't be surprised to see that high level of play from them again.

2059 also has been consistently a high performing team and seeing their reveal video for this year leads me to believe they will end up in a top seeded position.

3489 always builds some very solid machines even winning the Peachtree Regional as Captain of an alliance in 2013.

900 though not as SC team wowed us with a very innovative strategy last season that ended with them winning the North Carolina regional.

1102 has not missed an elimination bracket at event that they've attended in the past 4+ seasons with the past two years leading them to alliance captain positions.

2815 though having a dry spell recently still holds a standing record number of blue banners within the past 5 years.

Finally both 4935 (NC team), and 4901 were rookie season regional winners last year at Palmetto and Orlando respectively.
