Probably because everyone built their robots so tall.
We purposely built our robot short because we didn't want to tip over (and we didn't). I don't understand why everyone is having a fit over thier robot tipping over when they purposely built a tall robot in a physical game. Obviously they valued being able to shoot high over staying upright and underestimated the physical nature of the game.
At the championship it's only going to get tougher.
