What division will win?

[henryBsick]

I believe that all of the big gun Archimedes will be funneled down. There is only one division winner, so all of the strong teams there will knock each other around and only three of all of those teams proceed. It will be a tough division to place in , yes, but a division only needs thre or four good to decent teams to make a national winning alliance. I believe Galileo will win because there are a few strong teams to make an alliance and no other huge names in the FIRST world.

Whats a huge name in FIRST?,


I think the question can only be answered via teams reputations, as "huge names"

Its funny how every year at nats i am always suprised to see who makes it to the finals

sure there is always a chance that the technokittnes can pull it off
or wildstang could have a repeeat, maybe Beatty wants to make it 4 wins, but then again, maybe a lesser known team will pull one out of the hat, maybe there will be "The giant upset" by the rookies against the more experienced teams.

My opinion is i have no opinion, ever division has its fair chance

This year is great where anyone can win its not gonna take one specific strategy

That is what I mean by big names. a team who has constantly proven themselves, espacially this year. I mean teams like you mentioned, also others like the Cheesy Poofs off of the top of my head, or 25. You may not have the hardware yet, but you are deffinitly in contention .

just as the man said, the big names in archimedes will knock each other out so it turns out that the question is not which is the stronger division just which division will hold the stronger alliance. This could come from anywhere. My guess is Archimedes and Newton. but right now there is no way to tell.

I've said it alot, but here it goes. Some how my team is always in the winning division. Curie has a strong chance. Very high average scoring, lots of regional winners, and some REALLY good rookies. Overall performance will detirmine the winner, whatever div. has a good spread of teams will win it. A separate note: I think a rookie team will be in the winning alliance this year.

Funny how the teams you have mentioned are all in the Archimedes division...

Now I am not saying this to say that you are contradicting yourself. I just want to point out that probably by "huge teams" are teams that have a great reputation in these forums and within the FIRST community. It just so happens that many of these "huge teams" are in the Archimedes; which just so happens to be the favorite by this poll. I guess by having no opinion and leaving it ambigous is a good call. Fair is fair.

my vote would have to go to newton... but that's a lil bias. all i can say is that newton has the most number of regional winners. theres a nice balance of herders and hangers/cappers who have won regionals, so my vote goes to newton.

archimedes will be runner-up tho...

CURIE will take it all the way! Never doubt the undoubtable.
