My team was ranked 35 out of 38 at New York City regional. We were picked second in the alliance selections.
The reason we were picked is because [we like to think] we have a great robot. We didn't really have any handouts.
The rankings really aren't a good indicator of a team for two reasons:
1) Random allies - You can get allied with robots that just aren't good time and time again
2) Crazy scoring system - Having a score equal to three times your opponents score is just nuts. Often some of the best teams end up on the bottom and vice versa.
