orientation

The field set-up is always the same at the start of each match.

Well.... as close as possible so that at the start of each match a team can expect the same challenge.

Becasue all Mike said was that they set up the field the same way, i don't think he answered your question. Yes, as long as no one forgets (which you can remind them to do before the match begins if they don't) They will align the tower so that red is red, and blue is blue.

I hope this answers your question exactly

The "Not-So-Twisting" Towers

Originally, Justin was going to start each match by giving the towers a twirl and letting the position be random. Anybody who has ever tried to spin the towers now knows, however, that the towers don't spin very well. So, it was decided to go with the more boring opening of a fixed tower position, like colors facing each other.
