I suggest that a majority of each match be a zoomed out view of the entire field, while a smaller percentage of time is dedicated to zooming in on a particular robot or drive team.

It's nice to see the kids run and grab the controls. But to focus on them for the next 10-15 seconds? If that's the primary target, what about the 5 other driver teams on the field?
And during the bonus period, how about 'zooming out' in order to see both alliances attempting to hang? I think I may have a caught a match or two where two robots were attempting to hang on the same tower, but the video feed concentrated on only one robot.
