So with the ChampionSplit numbers for Detroit, is it feasible that Michigan can be sending more than 102 teams to the Detroit ChampionSplit?
If so that would mean it will be harder to qualify for MSC, than Detroit ChampionSplit, or said another way, All the teams that qualify for MSC, will qualify ChampionSplit?
Anyone know how mane teams will participate at each ChampionSplit?
Based on this years team distribution, how many Michigan teams would there be?

Michigan gets a percent of the spots at the championship equivalent to the percent of FRC teams that Michigan has, rounded up to the next whole spot, at whatever time the district allotment size is calculated.
Michigan received 76 slots this year, which is 12.67% of the 600 spots. If they get the same percentage next year, that is 101.33 spots of the anticipated 800, since we do not know exactly where between 75.01 and 76.00 Michigan fell, this means that it will be 101 or 102 spots if Michigan keeps the same percent of the number of FRC teams. How these 100+ spots are divided between the two championships (each of which are anticipated to have 400 spots) is, as of yet, unknown.
As I understand it, at least one reason that MSC became larger was so that not all teams at MSC would qualify for the Championship. It is possible the folks at FIM will grow MSC again, but currently that is speculative.
