Predictions Week 7: Shootouts in Michigan and Philadelphia

[CalTran]

Looks like Michigan State Championship will be, like always, a pretty stacked championship. Though, this, as well, is the first year they will have competition for attention, but MAR looks to give quite the fight for my attention simply because of the time zone and elims starting earlier. I must say that, simply by reputation, I've been paying more attention to Michigan rather than MAR. It will be quite interesting to watch the battles in Ypsilanti between HOT, 469, and 33. I'll also be on the look out for 217, as well as my favorite, 2337.

As the schudules look MSC is starting and finishing before MAR and they are in the same time zone.

We sent a whole week debating that issue, and narrow won, to my chagrin.

Great analysis, very interesting reading, especially for the FiM stuff which held little interest for me in the past...

Team 25 is a narrow bot and they didn't seem to have any problems working with their two partners on the bridge...and there have been many examples of "narrow" bot successes with triples this season
