The thing I often notice with teams that fail to complete the robot oft times also fail to completely read the manual and thus understand the rules.
So while they have no choice to do anything else but play defense they'd best be careful where and how they play defense this year or else instead of preventing the opposing alliance from scoring points they end up costing their own alliance significant points.
