We ended up ranked 7th..then 6th after the alliance selection started.
I wondered about that too and reviewed the tape as it was throwing off our ranking calculation.

It seems your team received a DQ in match 75 for going into the 1pt zone, which I would deem un-fair. What I saw was your robot being pushed into the goal by the blue robot (540). See 1:55 into this video clip.

...unless your robot went into the score zone at some other point in the match, you have a right to be upset.

It's actually better to be ~ 5th seed anyway this year as that gold medal you have proves!
