Last year several teams declined to the point where there were 55 slots available but only 53 teams competed.
A combination of the short notice, the back to back weeks, the registration cost, or maybe qualified for Championships from another avenue (Regional award/win etc).
So if you are 60th in the rankings I would at least start making plans (getting registration fees together, getting a bus reserved, and students getting prepared) in the event that you receive the call.
