Theres a perfectly good reason for that.. Midwest defense has no style!

(First clip: Team 20's amazing auto pan/tilt autonomous mode was taken out by a hit on the corner of their bot, apparently putting their camera out of range.
Second Clip: 2 autonomous shooting robots were taken out by simple autonomous modes, delayed to start at the opportune time.
Note: Both matches faced 2 small ball bots and 1 not too good shooter against an alliance of at least 2 strong shooters. Needless to say, our alliance won 60-19 in the first match (team 20's only loss in qualifying rounds) and 79-52 in the next
Another note: We do not shoot into the center goal. Our robot was designed to play hard defense and work the small goal.Only one of our alliance partners has ever shot more than 1 ball through the center goal in auto. Still, we have never lost an autonomous mode. )
Watching the Silicon Valley Regional and how most of the shooters went undefended, I really wish we went out the CA this year.
