Go download them off of SOAP and watch them, they're absolutely crazy.

The newton semifinals had the only match where both alliances scored over 100 pts (sf 2-2 108-115). The 987/1503/1718(?) alliance won the first match, but the 25/968/195 alliance came back in one of the best matches of the year. The 3rd match was hard fought: 25 pinned 987 up on the ramp, and then defense was played until the last period, in which the first balls outside of the autonomous period were scored. Truly an amazing match.

Also, there were many great plays in the final matches of the Newton division.
In f-2, after losing autonomous, the 25/968/195 alliance was able to come back with a final score of 108-49. While 122 was trying to defend 968 from scoring up on the ramp, they both ended up flipping over, however, 25 was able to upright 968, which allowed them to continue to score. Also, 968 and 195 executed the "A-Bomb" during this match. Somehow 176 fell over , and as 111 was scoring, 25 was able to manuever areound both teams and get onto the ramp with 968 in the last two seconds.

I should probably go and download the Archimedes final matches too.
EDIT: Just finished watching the Archimedes finals, that first match was pretty close.
