I want to belive.. Are you too?

Two robots with a cross and high goal in auto and one with just a cross is 50 points. The eight remaining crosses in teleop are 40 points. Six more high goals is 30 points. Two robots scaling and one challenging is 35 points, and 20 points for a breach and 25 for a capture.

50 + 40 + 30 + 35 + 20 + 25 = 200

Obviously the robots in this match did incredibly well, and this probably wouldn't happen at your average event, but I think that a pairing of elite teams at Champs or some other high-level event could do it.

One other thing that might come into play is fouls. In the quarterfinals at Palmetto, 3824, 1296 and 4533 scored 179 points, helped largely by 35 points in fouls on the opposing alliance. This was almost the hightest score at the event (the 1 seed alliance scored 180 a few matches later), and this alliance never scored anywhere near that high again. If a naturally higher-scoring alliance had received this many foul points, they easily could break 200.
