Here's my predictions, please feel free to ridicule me for my ignorance.

Curie can anyone say upset?
either 343 or 254+157 over 60

team 60 is strong, but everyone knows who they are and they are gunning for them, the cheesy poofs have changed a lot since buckeye and not a lot of people have noticed it. 254 a strong double goal grab plus 157 a good ball robot will take it. metal in motion has the credentials and the robot to do some serious damage in Orlando also.

Archimedes
118, 47

118 has proven to be a strong goal bot and 47 has proven that they are a very strong ball bot together they can win it easy. 469 is obviously a great, but its the same story as team 60.

Einstein
192, 16

GRT and bomb squad are great robots with the right alliance partners and I think they are the right one's for each other. Wildstang is a quality robot and I think that whoever they ally with they will give the Bomb Squad a run for their money.

Newton
65, 66 vs. 67, 68 in the finals

We've seen it before and there's nothing to say that the GM powerhouses won't do it again. Why not keep it in the family and pick another GM team. 65 and 67 are two very good qualifiers and I think that they will stick with what they know. over all I see 67 and 68 taking Newton. 71 is another one of those teams that has shown a little too many of their cards and people are starting to figure out their weaknesses.

I am truly sorry if I left anyone out or offended anyone, but this is how i see it.
