Perhaps not a 2 on 3, but statisticaly speaking there is a much better chance an alliance composed of the best two robots will win the regional.
the BEST TWO ROBOTS, not the 2 highest seeded.

NJ
25 (#1) picked 103 (#10)

FLR
1126 (#1) picked 229 (#6)

GLR
Being clarified right now

Pittsburg
395(#1) picked 1038(#6)

Chesapeake
1629(#1) picked 175(#4)

Detroit
469 (#1) picked 217 (#14)

Mid-West
1756(#1) picked 111(#3)

Peachtree
1261 (#1) picked 1414 (#2)

SVR
254(#1) picked 581 (#9)

so of all the teams that seeded number 1 and went on to win only 1 had the alliance of the number 1 and number 2 seeded teams together. statistically it looks bad for the number 1 and 2 seeded alliances to team up.

Also what statistics are you using to show that the number 1 and number 2 seeded teams are really the best at any given regional?
