We never had this problem- but the ruling from VCU was a little different

We were part of an alliance that was DQ'ed because when the match was over, part of their arm was under the goal (about 1in at the most).

At VCU, they DQ'ed people based on whether or not any part of their robot was under the bottom surface, no matter from what angle or if for purpose (in our partners case, it was completely accidental, and it was just the way the goal was pushed, there was no damage or effect on the match because of the interaction)

That's how they called it, and they seemed to call it and the end of the match. So if you went under (incidentally.. no one did it intentionally that I saw) and were out before the end of the make, it was ok, but if when they looked over the field at the end of the match and you were under, it was zero points & DQ for the alliance.

So it seemed at least...
