In addition to working with the NERDS, I'm also part time mentoring a rookie team 6127 in Bisbee. I think the pushing thing is going to be a way for rookie teams to handle defenses more easily, if they figure out they can do that. It's one of those things that is not obvious if you've never played FRC before...or even if you have, but don't think that far.

It will be interesting to see how it plays out at the regionals.

btw after starting this thread, we tested our chassis design, and it appears to be capable of crossing half of the defenses relatively easily alone. So we might not need the push after all. But we will need help with the drawbridge/sally, and we are planning to ignore the portcullis/cheval, and be able to handle the low bar easily on our own.

This game makes my head hurt, thinking of the possible ways to play each match! Coaching will be a challenge.
