Carver:

Curie:
1114, 148, 4143, 3309
Galileo:
2056, 1619, 330, 525

2826, 987, 33, 3683

Tesla:
2481, 2122, 3824, 1806
We would have an amazing set of quarterfinal rounds, where five teams would be eliminated instead of the usual 4. In the slot left open the Woodie Flowers, Dean Kamen and Donald Bossi alliance would enter and sweep through to win the whole thing.

But on a more serious note, most of teams would be much less effective than they look. Even if they manage to get all the bins off the step, most have the capacity to stack more than seven 6 stacks. We would have probably one of the least exciting einsteins ever because they would finish stacking way before the time is up (except for when Dean Kamen lobs a game winning noodle into an unfinished six stack).
