Curie has definitely got the grand-daddy of all winners.

71


Three time national champ?
Two time consecutive, defending national champion?

They've won nationals 3/7 times they've competed.
Anyone else got a record like that?

In the FIRST world you can't spell winner without "Beatty".


Personally, I think it's too close to call this year. Each division is well balanced, and this game lends itself to weird upsets. I see quite a few potential "god" alliances that might occur. It all comes down to how the picking goes.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again...
Alliance selection is the single MOST important part of this years game. Finals will be won and lost during the draft.

Good luck to everybody. Go Curie!
