I wouldn't be surprised at all if all 3 somehow made it to the semi's. I know its probably unlikely because there are a few top heavy teams, but 179 whooped up florida elims, knocking out teams like 103. 103 is ranted and raved about, but people seem to forget that 179 pretty convincingly beat them. 1251 won Florida and got the banebot bug in Palmetto, there is a good shot they will be seeded very highly in newton. 79 had a lot of trouble getting going in Bayou, but towards the end 5 hurdles for them was pretty common place, Ohh and they run 3 lines every time with some pretty sweet collision avoidance. I've watched A TON of matches this year, these three teams aren't 1114, but they sure are on par with many of the teams that are constantly mentioned as a top teer. The only thing all three of them lack is an extremely powerful auton ( 2 balls 4 lines type ) but in the game, they can keep up with most any team. Because it seems like these teams have been kind of "sleepers" I wouldn't be surprised if they fell to the second round ( how ? I don't know ) and if they did, whoever picked them up would have a darn good chance.
