19% of the teams in Galileo are regional finalists (14) and 13.6% are regional champions (10)!

Not to mention all the other good teams who are known, and also not so known.

Just curious, does someone in the other divisions want to post the same data?

After looking at all four divisions I think I would have to give a slight edge to Curie. The division has a lot of very accomplished veteran teams. Just looking at the team list makes my mouth water in anticipation of some of the possible "dream" alliances. Wouldn't it be great to see team 60 and 71 paired up together? What about 16 and 188? The fantastic permutations are endless.

/Edit

Interesting note. The number one picks of each of the division winners from last year are all in the Curie division; teams 25, 60, 71 and 308.

This division definitely has its powerhouses.

Yah! So!
Archemedies will be national champs simply due to the toughness scale. Yah I'm talkin' the low profile powerhouses such as 34, 111, 967, 11, 47, 59, 85, etc.

I already have, brandon

I must say that curie will be the nat champs this year. teams like 16, 25, 60, 343, 365 could produce some unstoppable alliances.

Don't forget 222

Don''t forget 222 in that list of low power houses......just ask teams that have tried to push us around. Most we even handled in two wheel drive!

I say not my good man!
Archemedies all the way. Is there any doubt? If there is I will smite thee, for thee is stupid.
For those stupid people I WILL smite; smite means kill.
