Added note -
I think you might see something like this play out in Atlanta also, so it should be interesting to see what transpires.

I am no fan of the top 8 picking amongst themselves as well, I feel if they weren't allowed to pick those teams THAT would be a great equalizer as well. But I guess we have to play the cards we are dealt and if we find ourselves matched against a super alliance, then we try and find a winning strategy.

Congratulations to the winning alliance and to all the teams involved. There are many teams around the country who are happy to just have a robot score one hurdle in a match. I know this may not be the goal and is not the goal of many very good teams, but take joy in victories which may not be so obvious to you right now.
