I think that the number proposed before me is even a little too high. I believe that in this competition, the majority of teams will value the ability to do things on the field to score points alot more than the ability to go under the bar really quickly. I can imagine that a good number of teams will go over the bar, but I would like to see how many can actually do it in a good amount of time. So to make a long story short, yes, alot of teams will try to do it, but efficiently, I doubt that many can pull it off.
