Your list looks pretty accurate otherwise, but I would also add 3176 to the list of teams to look out for. They were the only successful Indiana team (from what I can tell) at defense, when they shut down 1747's high goals in the Walker Warren quarterfinals, and if they can maintain their defensive prowess, they will be high on the pick lists as well.

3176's lack of ball control is stopping me from putting them on my personal list, but I understand the reasoning why otherwise. They'd be a steal if they were left in the second round.

May be too early for some REALLY bold predictions, but here it goes:

1.) 71, 868, 6012
2.) 1501, 1747, 447
3.) 4103, 1741, 2197
4.) 1024, 4982, 3176
5.) 135, 461, 3180
6.) 3940, 292, 2171
7.) 3559, 1529, 45
8.) 234, 1720, 3147


QF 1 begins with the #1 seed setting the record score of the event against the #8 seed. In the second match, the #8 seed absolutely kills it and is able to edge out the #1 seed. In the third match, it seems as if the #1 seed is going to semifinals until 71 drops from the bar and rolls off the batter. #8 advances to semifinals.

QF 2 ends with the #4 seed going 2/2, with the #5 seed almost taking it to a third match. #4 advances to semifinals.

QF 3 begins with #6 upsetting #3 due to 2197 not making it to the batter, but they get it together and the #3 alliance wins their next 2 matches and almost tie the high score. #3 advances to semifinals.

QF 4 sees the #2 seed go 2/2 against the #7 seed, who put out all they had but came just short of getting the third match. #2 advances to semifinals.

In SF 1 the #4 seed shows just how awesome they are at putting up points, breaking the event high score and moving on to finals, and the #8 seed ain't even mad. #4 advances to finals.

SF 2 begins with the #2 seed absolutely wiping the floor with the #4 seed, but 1501's shooter jams and it has to be taken to a third match. This third match is almost as exciting as F 3 at Waterloo. The match begins with 1501 and 1747 both hitting their 20pt autonomous routines, but 447 gets their intake jammed in the low bar. Meanwhile, 4103 and 1741 both hit their 20pt autonomous routines that don't exist and 2197 hits their 10pt routine. The score going in to teleop is 42-50. Teleop sees 447 get unjammed and immediately begin scoring low goal and 2197 go over to play defense. The match goes on and ends with a TIE. #3 advances on auto points.

Finals sees 3176 with a cheesecake climber, but that climber is their undoing in the end. They slide off the batter in both matches leaving the #3 seed 2/2. #3 wins.


NOTE: I mean no offense to any teams in my predictions. It says REALLY bold for a reason
