I don't know patterns about regional champions going onto winning nationals and stuff, but I think it's safe to say the division champions at nationals are going to have at least 2 regional champions on their alliance with an occasional team like 237 that just had some bad luck or couldn't pull off a win in the finals for whatever reason.

This year's game just seems like if you have it figured out, you have an awsome shot at winning. Teams 126 and 69 didn't win their regionals by luck, they won because they're smart, know how to play the game, and know their robot's limits. I'm certain the same is true for the other multiple regional champions.
237 was eliminated in the semis at FLR.
