The teams went in this order (the number indicates seeding)
Clearly alliances 5 and 8 (team 845, 1026) were convinced that seeding was not important. Alliance 5 made it to the semis.
-1---2---3---4---5---6---7---8

I totally agree that rankings isn't the only thing that matters for a good alliance. Team 845 picked 1102 and 342 not because of ranking but because a.) they were from South Carolina b.) We knew that these teams were made up of great people. As you saw at Palmetto the #36th and #35th ranked teams beat the #10th and #12th ranked teams, and we still had a blast working with them.

Also Swampdude, thanks for the compliment you guys did awesome at both regionals, it was great facing you guys at UCF. 845 had a blast and can't wait to see everyone at nationals!
