FIRST should seriously reconsider the Midwest Regional on an alternate weekend than either of the Michigan Regionals. I would estimate that over half of the teams last year at the Midwest were from the Detroit local. The teams from out East have plenty of action in their area and will not fill the void at the Midwest. If the three regionals in question were on different weekends, going to three regionals could be easily achieved with a short bus ride. Maybe there will be enough new teams to plug the hole and maybe FIRST has thought this through. I hope I'm wrong but my prediction: 25 teams or less at Midwest with a weaker line-up.
